You?re probably like me and have been seeing these cookies all over the internet. If you like gooey butter cake, you?ll need to make these cookies ~ and then just try not eating the whole batch!

These melt in your mouth cookies are soft on the outside and ooey gooey on the inside. They have a buttery lemon taste with semi-sweet chocolate chips complementing it. Rolling them in powdered sugar before baking gives them just the right sweetness and dusting with powdered sugar after baking just makes them pretty.

The dough should be covered and refrigerated for at least 2 hours before baking to firm up so you can roll the batter into balls. I let them sit overnight in the refrigerator. Instead of rolling them into balls, I used a medium cookie scoop which was perfect for the job; not as messy and giving a uniform size. If you don?t have a cookie scoop, roll the dough into walnut-size balls.

The cookies are usually made with a yellow cake mix but you can substitute your favorite. Maybe it?s chocolate or strawberry, coconut, pineapple or red velvet. They?re easy to make and it?s fun experimenting with different flavors. They?re simple and a hit with everyone!
