Description

Lemon whippersnappers are little balls of lemon-flavored dough that are rolled in powdered sugar. They bake up just like chocolate crinkle cookies!

Ingredients

1 (18 1/4 ounce) package lemon cake mix
2 cups frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar

Directions

1 In a large bowl, combine cake mix, whipped topping, and egg; mix until well combined. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight. (Or wrap the dough in plastic and freeze.)
2 When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two cookie sheets or line with parchment paper.
3 Roll dough into 1-inch balls, then roll each ball in confectioners' sugar to coat.
4 Bake in the preheated oven until cookies are set but not browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
