Ingredients
For the Cookies:
- 1 Box Lemon Cake Mix
- 2 Eggs
- 1/3 Cup Vegetable Oil
- 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 Teaspoon Fresh Lemon Juice
- 1/3 Cup Confectioners’ Sugar
- ‘D’ Cookie Cutter
- ‘A’ Cookie Cutter
- Food Markers
For the Frosting:
- 1 Cup Confectioners’ Sugar
- 2 Teaspoons Milk
- ¼ Teaspoon Clear Vanilla Extract
- 2 Teaspoons Corn Syrup
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Mix together the cake mix, eggs and vanilla extract. Once combined, add in the vegetable oil, sugar and lemon juice.
- Place the cookie dough on a greased baking sheet in 1.5 inch balls and bake.
- Once the cookies have been in the oven for 3-4 minutes, use the back of a spoon to gently push the tops of the cookies down. Allow them to bake for another 7-8 minutes.
- Remove from heat and immediately use the cookie cutters to cut out the ‘d’ and ‘a’ letters. Combine the milk, clear vanilla extract, corn syrup and confectioners’ sugar in a bowl. Once the cookies have cooled, use a brush to top the cookies with this frosting (you may have to do 2-3 layers). Wait 20-30 to let the frosting harden.
- Allow your little to gently color on the frosting (if they poke a hole in the cookies just coat with another layer of frosting) and serve to dad!
