Lemon Crinkle Cookies
The temperatures are starting an upward trend here in the Phoenix area. While it may not seem like much, we’re forecasted to be in the low 80’s next week. Oh, how I’ve missed the 80’s. Warmer daytime temps generally mean warmer night time temps – and if that means no more 30’s and 40’s – I’m all for it!
When the weather starts warming up – or when I wish it would warm up – I start thinking about all things spring – and lemon is one of the first things that comes to mind! It’s kind of hard not to love the bright, citrusy flavor that pretty much reminds you of sunshine and warmer days.
These Lemon Crinkle Cookies are soooooooo easy and they only have 4 ingredients! As a kid, I remember loving chocolate crinkle cookies (and I still love ’em!) – but I think these lemon crinkle cookies are my new fave!

Do you ever put the carb values in your recipes? I am diabetic that’s why I ask. It would be very helpful.
Thanks so much for the feedback, Donna. Most of my recipes are auto-calculated so I’ve never really paid attention. Going forward, I will try to be sure that information is included and I’ll see if I can get my assistant to go back through my old recipe cards and included that info in the near future.
