Cake Batter Cookies With Colorful Frosting (Easy!!)

This recipe is super easy and scrumptious! Let’s just say that I am a sucker for things on sale. :) When I see things that I like or see that I could use, I buy a few and store them away until I need them. At times is comes in handy, but there are times where things just sit in my cabinets! This recipe was spurred because I had too many cake mixes in my kitchen! They are like sugar cookies but they are really moist and addicting! Keleen, they remind me of the cookies you buy in the summer from Fred Meyer with the delicious frosting that is caked on the top!




Preheat oven to: 350 degrees

Bake for: 15 minutes

Makes: About 4 dozen

Decorating: Varies in length depending how adventurous you are!



Ingredients:



• 1 package of cake mix. Any flavor will do. I usually use the Funfetti cake mix, its colors are fun!

• 1 large egg
• ¼ cup of oil

• ¼ cup of water

• 2 containers of vanilla frosting

• Various food colorings for cookies



Directions:

1. Put cake mix in a large bowl and add the water, oil and egg. Stir until well blended. (I always use my kitchen aid, but hand mixing works just as well!)

2. Drop a teaspoon of the mix down on a cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. ( I usually drop them in rows of 3 and columns of 3)

3. Bake them anywhere between 10-15 minutes. My oven is kind of sketch, so for you it might be more in the time of 15 minutes. But check them at around 10 minutes just incase!

4. Let them cool and then decorate as you so desire! I used stared tips with my cake decorating bags. It took a long time but the outcome is beautiful! :)
