Red Velvet Cake Cookies
6:52 AMWhat could be better than cake and cookies? Cake cookies!
Oh yes, these cookies are delicious and incredibly simple!
I discovered these tasty treats while visiting my husbands parents. His sister and mom had made some, so we gave them a try and it was love at first bite! I knew I had to make them for us asap and add some cream cheese icing too! They've quickly become one of my favorite "cookies!"
What you'll need:
-1 boxed red velvet cake mix
-6 tablespoons melted butter
-2 eggs
-1/4 cup flour*
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Disregard cake mix instructions, combine cake mix, melted butter and eggs. Mix well. Grease cookie sheet. At this point, you can either spoon them onto your cookie sheet
*or you can add in the flour to make a firmer dough. I like mine to pull away from the sides of the mixing bowl and not be sticky to the touch. Now pinch off 1 to 2 inch sized pieces and roll them between your hands to form a ball. Place on cookie sheet, gently press down, (similar to how you'd treat a peanut butter cookie) They don't spread too much so you can fit a couple more onto your pan. Place in oven for about 8 to 10 minutes. These bake FAST so keep a watch on them. Just when you think they need a couple more minutes, it's time to take them out! Place on cooling rack.
You can either eat them like this or make a delicious Cream Cheese Frosting to go on top. Decorate accordingly and watch them disappear! These cookies are so simple and a huge hit!
Enjoy!
