I get asked frequently by working moms for simple, easy recipes. They want recipes that don’t take a lot of time and don’t take a lot of ingredients. These cookies start with a lemon cake mix. All you add are eggs, oil and the white chocolate chips. SUPER EASY. Plus, they’re absolutely delicious. I add a whole bag of white chocolate chips so the cookies are pretty rich. No one can stop at just one. 🙂

My husband has given several containers of these cookies out as gifts. They have received very high marks. Most people can’t believe something so tasty only has 4 ingredients. 🙂 Every now and then I have to restock our freezer because he likes to give cookies out all the time. Recipes like this can be made up so quickly that I don’t have to spend my whole day baking cookies.

If you want the quickest and easiest dessert to take to a potluck, tailgating party or backyard barbecue, this is it. If you want a delectable cookie for Christmas or holiday parties, this is it. If you want a lemon-flavored dessert to wow your family and friends, Lemon White Chocolate Cookies are it!

Equipment

  • 2 18x26" cookie sheet pan
  • 1 large mixing bowl
  • 1 wooden spoon
  • measuring cups
  • 1 spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 15.25 oz. box Lemon Cake Mix
  • 1/3 cup canola oil or vegetable oil (or even avocado oil)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 11.25 oz. pkg. white chocolate chips NOT vanilla chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Combine cake mix, oil and eggs.
  • Stir in white chocolate chips.
  • Spray cookie sheets with cooking spray.
  • Roll cookies into balls or scoop cookie dough with a scoop and place on prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake at 350° for 13-15 minutes or until done.
  • Rotate cookie sheets on oven racks every seven minutes while baking.
  • Cool completely.

Notes

NOTE: Because I was baking three racks of cookies at once, my cookies took 18 minutes to make. I also rotated the trays every six to seven minutes.
 
NOTE: These cookies must be rotated during baking or the white chocolate chips will brown on the top rack.
 
NOTE: I found it easier to keep my hands moist while rolling cookie dough into balls.
 
NOTE: Be sure to use true white chocolate chips. Most stores only carry white or vanilla chips. They are not the same. In the Dallas area the only two stores that carry white chocolate chips are Kroger and Trader Joe’s.

    Thanks for the cookie recipe. The lemon look good. My men like chocolate. I will use the chocolate cake mix with butterscotch chips. I can’t wait to surprise them.
