Description

Delicious cookies made with yellow cake mix and cream cheese, perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces cream cheese (room temperature)
  • 0 cup unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 package (18 ounces) yellow cake mix
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (for rolling)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly coat with non-stick spray.
  2. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and melted butter until smooth, about 2 minutes.
  3. Add eggs and beat until just combined, avoiding overmixing.
  4. Pour in the entire package of yellow cake mix, mixing until a cohesive dough forms.
  5. Place powdered sugar in a shallow bowl. Form dough into 1-inch balls and roll each in sugar.
  6. Arrange dough balls 2 inches apart on prepared sheets. Bake 9–11 minutes until edges are lightly golden and centers jiggle slightly.
  7. Let cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to finish cooling.

Notes

  • These cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week.
  • For variation, try adding chocolate chips or nuts to the dough.
