For Trudy in Slidell, La:
Alas no more Lemon Coolers (to my knowledge). The following is a close recipe though:

Lemon Coolers

1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 1/2 cup cake flour
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/3 cup shortening
1 tbls water
1 egg
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/8 tsp salt
1/2 tsp unsweetened lemonade mix

Cream together 1/2 cup powdered sugar, 1/3 cup white sugar, shortening, egg, vanilla, & salt. Add flour & baking powder. Add 1 tbls water & mix to form a dough ball.

Roll in 3/4 inch balls & flatten slightly onto lightly greased cookie sheet. Bake at 325 degrees for 15-18 min. until light brown.

Combine 1 cup powdered sugar w/ lemonade mix in a large plastic bag, and shake well to mix. Add 4-5 hot cookies to the bag & shake to coat well. Repeat w/remaining cookies.

My mother used to surprise my son with a box of lemon coolers. We both miss those things, but this is a good reminder.
