PINK LEMONADE GOOEY BUTTER COOKIES

Steps:

• Put the butter into a large mixing bowl.
• Cream the butter until soft and creamy.
• Add the cream cheese and beat until mixture is smooth.
• Beat in the egg, lemon extract and lemon zest until combined.
• Add the cake mix and beat just until well mixed.
• If the dough is too soft to roll into balls, cover the bowl and refrigerate the dough for 1-2 hours or until it's easy to handle.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Place some granulated sugar and confectioners' sugar into separate bowls.
• Roll the dough into 1-inch to 1 1/4-inch balls.
• Drop each dough ball into the bowl of granulated sugar and roll it in the sugar to coat completely.
• Immediately drop the sugared dough ball into the confectioners' sugar and roll it to coat heavily with the sugar.
• Rolling the dough balls in the granulated sugar first helps the confectioners' sugar coating not sink into the baked cookies.
• Place the dough balls 2″ apart on ungreased cookie sheets; flatten slightly. Bake at 350 F for 10-12 minutes. DO NOT overbake.
• Take the cookies out of the oven when they look a little underdone.
• Let the cookies cool on the pan for 1-2 minutes, then remove them from the pans to wire racks and cool completely.
