Ingredients

1 (18.25 ounce) box Duncan Hines® Red Velvet Cake Mix
6 tablespoons butter
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon cornstarch

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, cooled butter, eggs, and lemon zest. Mix by hand until well blended, forming a cohesive dough.
In a shallow dish, whisk together the powdered sugar and cornstarch with a fork until thoroughly combined.
Shape the dough into 1-inch balls and generously roll each ball in the powdered sugar mixture. Place the sugared dough balls about 2 inches apart on cool, ungreased baking sheets.
Bake one sheet at a time in the center of the preheated oven until the cookies are set, approximately 9 to 11 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely for about 15 more minutes. Repeat the process to bake any remaining cookies.
