I have gotten into a baking mood lately but with Paul being
so busy with work and two little girls who get all my attention, there is not a
whole lot of time to spend in the kitchen.
I found the remedy for that. Cake box cookies!!!
These are so easy to make, very moist and work great when an extra surprise is tossed in {craisins, chocolate chips, nuts, etc.}.
White chocolate chips are a family favorite here. When the chips melt and caramelize a little, well, it’s just simply delicious.
INGREDIENTS
Duncan Hines Spice Cake Mix
One can {15 oz} Pumpkin
Any additions {craisins, chocolate chips, nuts, etc.}
*You can also double the recipe if you need more and they turn out great as well
SUPPLIES
Cookie sheets
Baking mats
Hand Mixer or Wooden Spoon
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place baking mats or parchment paper on cookie sheets.
Mix the spice cake mix with the pumpkin. Once it's completely mixed, it will be sticky, add any extras you want. I didn't measure specifically but I usually added about 1 C -1 1/2 C of white chocolate chips. It just depends on your mood.
Drop table spoon sized balls onto the cooking mat and bake for 11-13 minutes {depending on your oven}. I usually flatten them out a little because they don't really spread out as they bake. When I first started making these I would poke with a toothpick to make sure it came out clean.
Yum!
Another bonus to cake box cookies is the amount it makes.
Usually I can get around 3 dozen snack sized cookies
that will last us a week or so…..you know, as long as I don’t make them when
I’m hungry and eat most of the first batch.
I would love to hear from you and see your projects. Leave a comment or #AlwaysCreate on your photos. Find me on Instagram {@AlwaysCreate} and follow along for behind the scenes and fun little extras.
Thanks for reminding me of this recipe. I've been particularly busy lately and I'm sure my toddler will be happy to bake a treat.
ReplyDeleteThey are a very toddler friendly recipe and the great thing is it won't make so many that you'll get sick of them. Happy baking!
DeleteThese look so yummy! (And easy!!) I can't wait to try these with my kids! #MondayMotivation
