Lemon cookies with pudding mix (1982)
For a pick-me-up treat after working in the yard or playing hard, nothing can beat a plate of fresh, home-baked cookies. And these delicious Lemon Pudding Cookies with their bright citrus taste are extra refreshing.
These cookies are so easy to make with the help of buttermilk baking mix because there’s no butter to cream. And because they are no-roll cookies, even more preparation time is saved.
