Question:  What do you do when life gives you lemons?

Answer:  Make more than one lemon cookie recipe!

Today, in honor of the sour fruit, I present to you a bonus cookie of the week, Lemon Cake Mix Cookies.  Also, here’s the link, in case you missed yesterday’s Ricotta Lemon Cookies.  Enjoy.

“What these cookies lack in terms of fancy, they make up for in easy.  These super simple cookies turn out very moist, with an intense lemon flavor.  Look no further for a fun option, when you are short on time.”
