Ingredients

Lemon Cookies:

  • 1 15.25 oz. box lemon cake mix
  • 2 large eggs
  • cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • sprinkles for rolling cookie dough into

Raspberry Frosting:

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F degrees. Line two large cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  • Using an electric or stand mixer, mix together the lemon cake mix, eggs, oil, and lemon juice until combined.
  • Using a cookie scoop, scoop cookie dough on prepared baking sheet. Pour sprinkles into a small bowl. Using your hands, roll the dough into balls and drop each ball into the sprinkles, coat them entirely.
  • Once balls are sprinkled, place on prepared baking sheets. Bake for 10 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before frosting.
  • Make the frosting by mixing softened butter on medium speed with an electric or stand mixer. Beat for about 3 minutes until smooth and creamy. Add powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Increase to high-speed and beat for 3 minutes. Stir in raspberry perserves, mix until combined. Frost cooled cookies using a piping bag with a open star tip or simply by using a knife.

Notes

  • I like to use yellow and white sprinkles to match the lemon, but pink would also look great and tie in to the flavor!
