Cookies All we have to do is make a few simple adjustments to the Nilla Wafers clone recipe, and we can create a cool copy of those awesome Sunshine Lemon Coolers. You know the ones -- those little round cookies dusted with tangy, lemon-flavored powderd sugar. These cookies will require less vanilla than the Nilla Wafers clone recipe. And to make the coating, we'll just use a little unsweetened Kool-Aid lemonade drink mix combined with powdered sugar. Shake the cookies in a bag with this mixture and you've got yourself another tasty knock-off. 1/2 cup powdered sugar 1/3 cup sugar 1/3 cup shortening 1 egg 1/2 teaspoon vanilla 1/8 teaspoon salt 1 1/2 cups cake flour 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1 tablespoon water Lemon Powdered Sugar 1 cup powdered sugar rounded 1/2 teaspoon unsweetened Kool-Aid lemonade drink mix 1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. 2. Cream together sugars, shortening, egg, vanilla, and salt in a large bowl. 3. Add the flour and baking powder. Add 1 tablespoon of water and continue mixing until dough forms a ball. 4. Roll dough into 3/4-inch balls and flatten slightly onto a lightly greased cookie sheet. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until cookies are light brown. 5. As cookies bake combine 1 cup powdered sugar with the lemonade drink mix in a large plastic bag and shake thoroughly to mix. 6. When the cookies are removed from the oven and while they are hot, add 4 or 5 at a time to the bag and shake it until the cookies are well coated. Repeat with the remaining cookies. Yields: 4 dozen plus one or two cookies. |
