Lemon Coolers



1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 1/2 cups cake flour
1/3 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/3 cup shortening
1 tablespoon water
1 egg
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon Unsweetened lemonade mix
1/8 teaspoon salt

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

2. Cream together sugars, shortening, egg, vanilla, and salt in a large bowl. Add the flour and baking powder. Add 1 tablespoon of water and continue mixing until dough forms a ball.

3. Roll dough into 3/4-inch balls and flatten slightly onto a lightly greased cookie sheet. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes or until cookies are light brown.

4. As cookies bake, combine 1 cup powdered sugar with the lemonade drink mix in a large plastic bag and shake thoroughly to mix.

5. When the cookies are removed from the oven and while they are hot, add 4 or 5 at a time to the bag and shake it until the cookies are well coated. Repeat with the remaining cookies.
