Ingredients
- 15.25 ounce box lemon cake mix
- ¼ cup flour
- ½ cup melted butter
- 2 eggs
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350˚F.
- In a large bowl, add the lemon cake mix, flour, melted butter, and eggs. Mix until a stiff batter forms.
- Form heaping tablespoonfuls of dough into balls, then roll each ball in powdered sugar to cover generously.
- Bake on parchment lined baking sheet for 8-10 minutes, or until centers are just set.Let cool for 2 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack.
Notes
- I think it is easier to roll in the powdered sugar when you use more than 1/4 cup and pile it up in a small bowl, but you do end up wasting some and tossing it at the end.
- When these come out of the oven they are almost like a gooey and molten in the middle! Once they sit for 15-20 minutes they will set and just be dense in the best way. Both are delicious!
