A LABOR of love...the dough for this recipe is absolutely INSANE! Super sticky! I even added a 1/2c. of flour (as someone else reommended) AND chilled it for an hour, but it was still hard to work with. Thank God for the Pampered Chef Medium Scoop! The only redeeming quality for this cookie is its taste...but they aren't even close to to die for, so I will not be making them again. I also made the mistake of using Red Velvet cake mix - needless to say, my kitchen looked like a murder scene! LOL :) Oh well - give it a whirl if you like a challenge!

Super easy! The only complaint I have is that the dough was extremely STICKY. I probably should have stuck the dough in the fridge for a half hour or so. I didn't have lemon cake mix, so I used chocolate fudge cake mix, and I had a bag of Kraft caramel chips in the cupboard and threw them in as well. They tasted just like chocolate/caramel Pop Tart Sticks (I'm not sure if they even make them anymore). Next batch will be the same plus marshmallows and pecans for rocky road cookies!

Great taste - but really more like little cakes than cookies. I put mine in the fridge for a few minutes to get cold and they were super fluffy. Great simple taste and very easy too.

The batter was very good. I enjoyed the cookies when they were warm. Next time I will try strawberry cake mix.

These were so easy, you can't mess it up! I had to bake them for exactly 11 minutes but other than that I followed the recipe, and they look just like the picture and taste even better!

I thought these were great! My husband loved them. My only problem was, it took longer for them to bake than the recipe says.

Every time I make these cookies I have to double the recipe! I just can't keep them around. I am a chocolate fan, but these are the best cookie around. Very easy and EVERYONE likes them. Even non-lemon lovers!

A good cookie. Turned out well, and everyone wanted to know about them. Easy to mix up, but I DEFINITELY recommend the wise tip of first rolling the sticky ball in granulated sugar before dealing with the rather messy 10X sugar...that really helped, but be ready to wipe your hands after each cookie. Mine needed to bake a full 15 minutes, in a convection oven, to be done. The 15 minute time was about perfect, though I make my cookies a bit larger than recommended. Also, to store, the best is an airtight container in the frig to keep them at their tastiest.

Love this recipe. We made these when my oldest was young, and now with my 2 little ones. Its so easy for them to make. And they can pick their favorite flavors by changing the cake mix.

I'd love to give these 5 stars, but every batch came out flatter than pancakes. I even chilled the dough. Don't know what went wrong, but they were never like the picture or like the gourmet bake shop I wanted to copy. If anyone has any help, I'd love to know why they wouldn't rise. I used regular Cool Whip (whole tub), two eggs and a Duncan Hines chocolate mix.

Refrigerate the dough! It makes or break this recipe. And high altitude people, don't forget to add more flour! Great recipe nonetheless, but put the dough in the fridge for an hour or so and then the cookies won't be as flat.

I was anticipating enjoying these cookies, I'm a big fan of cool whip. I was very disappointed. I thought the cookies were very bland and tastelss. I did use light cool whip (but I use light everything and it never bothers me). I would not make these again, sorry!

Tasted good, but plain. I was hoping that it would be more exciting than it was, but lemon cake is always delicious! =D My best friend is a Raider's fan so I split the confectionary sugar into two bowls and poured black food coloring into one bowl so I could have black and white cookies for him. =D

Amazing!!! So good & easy! Dough is sticky, but if you drop it into the sugar and sprinkle w/ sugar before you touch it. Roll around in sugar and then it won't stick to you. As long as there is sugar on the dough you shouldn't have any problems.
