Weight Watchers Lemon Cool Whip Cookies

Everything about this recipe feels off to me – combine some lemon cake mix and cool whip into a super sticky dough, chill for 30 minutes, and magically get melt in your mouth lemon deliciousness… not possible… but somehow it happens. Honestly, you just have to try this recipe. I learned it from southern friend a few years back who wouldn’t tell me the ingredients until after I tried one (well really three). Just try it.

Hi Kristen!

Just so you know… I’m an avid subscriber to your website and L.O.V.E the recipes you have posted. I joined WW 9 weeks ago, and thanks in part to your delicious food ideas, I’ve lost over 25 lbs! Yay! But especially thank you for this recipe. I made the Lemon Cool Whip Cookies tonight and they were delicious! Half cupcake, half cookie. Truly a delightful 2 points. Can’t wait to share with some other friends who also joined WW. Thanks again for your dedication to helping others succeed!

I just had to try this recipe, being a fan of nearly anything lemon. I was truly amazed- these are not too sweet tangy lemon flavor, and cake-like in consistency. So easy, went together in very little time- the messiest part of the whole thing is the powdered sugar dusting the dough receives before baking. My biggest problem is my husband, who has eaten almost the whole batch within a few days. In his defense, however, They are addictive!

Made these tonight. They taste okay, a little dry. They also stuck to the cookie sheet really badly. I tried a couple of different types of cookie sheets and they stuck to everything. I might have two good cookies out of the batch. Since I was making them to take to a party of weight watchers gals, I am a little disappointed. Any idea what I could do differently next time?

  Silicon parchment paper or a silicon pan liner. Silpat makes a good one.

Has anyone tried this with any other flavor of cakemix? Just wondering if you have what you thought.
