lemon whippersnappers
The cookies are a perfect blend of sweet and citrusy. They're an excellent choice for a quick treat, and they make a great choice for baby showers and bridal showers. They're made with a cake mix, so they're easy to whip up, which is why they're called "whippers." During baking, the cookies will flatten and get a bit of a crackled appearance on top.
