So I had heard that you could bake cookies from cake mixes and thought hmmm....that would be a great easy way to make fresh cookies for the hubby, the hubby's shop, the holidays or even OYR when I don't have a lot of time on my hands. I did find out that it is something that you can do. I actually found the recipes on Betty Crockers website (
http://www.bettycrocker.com/) and they have all different sorts of recipes you can use for all of their mixes I thought it was sorta neat.
Fudge CrinklesIngredients: - 1 box Betty Crocker® SuperMoist® devil's food cake mix
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- Powdered sugar
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, stir dry cake mix, oil, eggs and vanilla, using spoon, until dough forms.
2. Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Roll balls in powdered sugar. On ungreased cookie sheet, place balls about 2 inches apart.
3. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until set. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 30 minutes. Store tightly covered.
What I did: I added a cup of mini chocolate chips to the batter and it was super yummy. Once they were cooled I used a white frosting and dyed it green for st. patty's day and made cookie sandwiches out of them. They were super good! and super sweet!
