So have you tried this Lemon White Chocolate Cake Mix Cookies Recipe yet?

Tammy says
Has anyone added grated coconut to these cookies? We received cookies similar to this as part of a welcome gift at a hotel and they were out of this world yummy! Fortunately they included the recipe as part of the package – identical to this. BUT… I detected a hint of coconut which was not mentioned on the recipe card (I even thought I saw some pieces in the cookies). Any ideas? Maybe a tiny bit of coconut extract? I’d prefer real coconut but not sure what it would do to texture and baking time. TIA!
Heidi says
Hi Tammy ~ adding in coconut sounds like a delicious addition! I’ve added sweetened coconut flakes into this Strawberry Cake Mix Cookies, and it was so tasty!
https://thefrugalgirls.com/2013/08/strawberry-coconut-cake-mix-cookies.html
Being that these lemon cookies already have plenty of chocolate chips, I would try mixing in around 1/3 – 1/2 cup of sweetened coconut flakes, and see if that gets you to the flavor you’re looking for. Hope that helps! 🙂
Susan says
Do you prefer the melted butter or oil when making the lemon white chocolate cookies?
Thank you!
Heidi says
Hi Susan ~ I’ve tried them both ways, and they both taste great. However, if given the choice… I always opt for butter first. It gives them a little bit of a richer flavor. Hope that helps! 🙂
Christie says
This sounds so good! I love the lemon flavour and the addition of the white chocolate chips. Such a great combination.
Heidi says
Thanks so much, Christie! It really is the perfect blend of sweet and tang! 🙂
Teri L Bennett says
Can these be made up in advance and frozen until ready to bake?
Heidi says
Hi Teri ~ I like to freeze these prior to baking. You can learn more about How to Freeze Cake Mix Cookie dough here:

Shelley says
I made the Strawberry with White Chocolate for a “pink” dinner. We also had fresh strawberries with pound cake and whipped cream. I must say… most of the cake was left over but, the cookies were wiped out! A huge hit with my big family. Thanks for the recipe. I’m looking forward to repeating the Strawberry and going on to Lemon. (I wish they still stocked Orange cake mix at my stores… that might make a really zippy cookie for spring.
Rebecca Squires says
How many cookies does this recipe approximately make?
Kelly says
Very nice! I modified this a bit using what I had on hand. I used a lime cake mix instead of lemon, used 1/4 coconut oil and 1/4 c. applesauce and baked as bars in a 9×9 pan. Topped with sweetened coconut and placed under the broiler the last minute. Very summery. Thanks for the ideas!
Heidi says
Yummy ~ sounds delicious, Kelly!
Vera Beauvais says
can I use Betty Crocker cake mix
Heidi says
Hi Vera ~ yes… you can use Betty Crocker lemon cake mix, too. 🙂
Jacqui Wilkins says
This may seem like a silly question, but does it matter what brand cake mix you use? I made these with a store brand cake mix – and they were sooo greasy! I mean, the oil was just oozing all over the mix, even after they were chilled.
Heidi says
Hi Jacqui ~ yes… every cake mix is different, and I’ve had the best results with the Duncan Hines Lemon Supreme on this recipe. The others can give a different consistency. Hope that helps! 😉
Anette says
I made these lemon cookies for my 11 yo daughter and her friends after-school. I made them with 3/4 c of Skittles instead of white chocolate chips. The lemon and Skittles were a perfect combination. It was a big hit.
I found the recipe on Pinterest. Thank you for sharing your recipes. However, now that I’m here I will check out the rest of the fun stuff.
Kathy Lanzner says
Great goolgy moogly these look good. I’m stopping today to get the chips and make these up today. Thanks Heidi, thjis one is going on my pin board. yum!
Heidi says
I hope you love them, Kathy! 😉
Katie says
I just made this recipe. OMG!! They are soo good!
Only one note: make the cookie balls super small as they spread as they cook
Genna says
How many does this recipe make?
Heidi says
Hi Genna ~ approximately 2 dozen, give or take. 🙂
jen says
Do you refrigerate the dough?
Heidi says
Hi Jen ~ it’s not necessary, but yes… you can refrigerate the dough for about 15 minutes prior to baking if you’d like. Hope that helps! 😉
