The Sweet Spot

I'm thinking I'm going to make this a once a week post. Something sweet. Maybe Sundays. I like lemon so here is an easy recipe for lemon sugar snap cookies.

Enjoy!

Easy Lemon Sugar Snaps

Coarse sugar or granulated sugar

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 375 degree F. In a large mixing bowl beat butter and egg with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Gradually beat in cake mix until combined; stir in cornmeal and lemon peel, if necessary knead dough to blend.
