    Brothers Jacob and Joseph Loose had a dream of creating products in a
    bakery filled with sunshine. In 1912 they got their wish by opening
    the famous "Thousand Window Bakery" in Long Island City, New York. It
    was the largest bakery in the work until 1955. Today Sunshine
    Biscuits has moved to another location in Sayerville, New Jersey,
    where ovens the size of football fields bake like crazy. Sunshine is
    now owned by Keebler and continues to produce many baked treats
    you're likely familiar with, such as Hydrox Cookies, Saltine
    Crackers, Vienna Fingers, Cheez-it Crackers, and these sweet Lemon
    Coolers. All we have to do is make a few simple adjustments to the
    Nilla Wafer clone recipe, and we can create a cool copy of these
    awesome little tangy wafer cookies. You know the ones--those little
    round cookies dusted with lemon-flavored powdered sugar. To make that
    coating, we'll just use a little unsweeteneed Kool-Aid lemonade drink
    mix combined with powdered sugar. Shake the cookies in a bag with
    this mixture (I call is bake 'n shake) and you've got yourself
    another tasty knock-off.

    Preheat oven to 325?F.

    Cream together sugars, shortening, egg, vanilla, and salt in a large
    bowl.

    Add the flour and baking powder. Add 1 tb water and continue mixing
    until dough forms a ball.

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

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

    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.
