Recipe(tried): Lemon Cake Mix Cookies with Lemon Glaze (similar to Archway Lemon Cookies)

Carol,
I adore those cookies and have been searching for that recipe recently and haven't found it. I did however find a lemon cookie recipe that uses a cake mix and is soft like those you buy. I topped mine with a lemon glaze. They are really good but not quite the same thing. These are not as flat and are actually quite puffy. The batter as well is pretty thick, but if you want the recipe I would be more than happy to give it to you.

LEMON CAKE MIX COOKIES

COOKIES:
1 package lemon cake mix
1/2 cup applesauce or oil
2 eggs
1 teaspoon lemon extract
GLAZE:
2 cups powdered sugar
1/3 cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon water
(you might want to add more sugar for a sweeter glaze)

Preheat oven to 375. Grease cookie sheets.

Pour dry cake mix into large bowl. Stir in eggs, applesauce (or oil), and lemon extract until well blended. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto prepared cookie sheets.

Bake for 6-9 minutes or until light brown on bottoms. Let cool and frost.

To frost, simply mix all listed glaze ingredients until the sugar is well dissolved.

BEST OF LUCK!
