Soon after everyone had left, I was on the search for this recipe. Once I realized I had all the ingredients in my house already, I had to make it! I love the idea of short cut recipes. Sometimes we need a little help and cake mixes are a great way to get the help you need with home made results!
Romans 12:10
Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor.
I cherish my time with friends. I love how I feel after spending time with a group of wonderful ladies....energized, encouraged and renewed.
Fellowship is not an event. It should be part of our life as a Christ-follower. I hope this recipe honors my friends as they eat these warm, soft and gooey cookies!
In a large bowl with an electric mixer, add the cream cheese, butter, egg, vanilla extract and then add cake mix. Beat together for 2 mins.
This is after 1 min. You can still see the cream cheese and butter.
This after 2 mins. It is perfectly blended and creamy.
Put in fridge for 2 hours. Then use a scoop and roll dough into balls, then dip in powdered sugar. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet, 2 inches apart. Bake 12-15 mins.
Let cookies cool for 5 mins. This is hard but they are so gooey and they need time to set up.
Now you can eat and enjoy!
I affectionately call these
Connie's Chocolate Crackle Cookies
- 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 stick butter, softened
- 1 egg
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 (18-ounce) box moist chocolate cake mix
- Powdered sugar for dusting
*You can also add 3/4 c of peanut butter to the batter*
If you love peanut butter as much as I do, you are always looking for ways to use it. I had to try this recipe with PB as well and it was GOOD!!
Please, leave a comment and tell me what you think.
I've made a similar recipe---but have never added the cream cheese. Goona have to try it out---and the addition of peanut butter sounds dreamy! :) Pinning!
