Need to ask, the cake mixes in my cupboard have water content of 1 1/4 to 1 1/3 cup so how much water did you use. Thanks. This would be a good recipe to try.

Hi Mary, I don't use cake mixes-it is so easy to mix it up yourself, and you know what is in it. I use this recipe for mine, and yes it is easy. Slightly different from yours.
1 1/4 C. all purpose flour, 1/4 C. cornstarch, 1 tsp. baking powder, 1/2 tsp. baking soda, 1/4 tsp. salt, 1/2 C. (1 stick) butter at room temperature, 1 C. sugar, 1 large egg, 2 tsp. vanilla extract, 1/4 tsp. lemon extract. Set racks in the middle and upper third of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Into a large bowl, sift the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together--three times. In a medium bowl, beat the butter and sugar for 2 minutes, until creamy. Beat in the egg and then the vanilla and lemon extracts until completely blended. With the mixer on its lowest setting, gradually add the flour mixture, blending just to combine. Drop rounded teaspoons of dough on nonstick or parchment-lined cookie sheets at 2 1/2-inch intervals. With moistened fingers, flatten and round out the cookies a little. Bake for 8 minutes, turning the pan once for even baking. The cookies are done when they are lightly browned around their edges.Set the cookie sheets on a rack to cool. Makes 4 dozen.
