S'More Cookies

Just another version of the Cake Mix Cookie - very easy and very good!

S'More Cookies

chocolate cake mix

2 Eggs

1/3 cup oil

1 cup chocolate chips

2 cups miniature marshmallows

2 chocolate bars

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, stir together cake mix, eggs, and oil until well combined. Mix in the chocolate chips. Using your hands, "smoosh" the marshmallows into the dough, then roll the dough into balls and place them on a cookie sheet. (Yes, "smoosh" is the technical French cooking term.) Then, break off small pieces of a chocolate bar and add a few to the top of each cookie. Bake for 7-10 minutes. Immediately transfer to a cooling rack. Cookies will be really soft when they first come out of the oven, but harden as they cool. Do not over bake.

Spice Cake Cookies

You've probably learned by now that I'm a big fan of cake mix cookies. You can use any flavor of cake mix, they're fast, and they're delicious.

It's the perfect time of year for spice cake, so I decided to make spice cake cookies.

They really are a tasty treat on their own...

....but, I thought some cream cheese frosting would go well with the spice cake cookies.

Yep. They were good.

If you have the time, you can add a little fondant flower and leaf, and they're ready to share!

Flower Cookies

These are white cake mix cookies, covered in melted white chocolate and decorated with fondant flowers. To ruffle the edges of the flowers, I rolled a toothpick along the edges to thin them. Then, I used extra balls of fondant to prop up the frilled edges while the fondant dried.



For the blue flower, I wanted an ombre effect, so I colored three small pieces of fondant different shades of blue. Then I layered them, darkest to lightest. I used sugar pearls for the centers of the flowers. Here is the royal icing piping before adding adding luster dust.



Here it is after. I used a tiny paintbrush to paint the writing with gold luster dust mixed with a little water.

Yellow Cake Mix Cookies

I always like to keep a box of cake mix in the cupboard. Not only for a quick cake, but quick cookies, too!


I used a yellow cake mix for the cookies. They are outlined and filled with glace icing. The flowers are made from fondant and sugar pearls.

Glacé Icing
1 cup confectioner's sugar : 1 Tbsp. light corn syrup : 1 Tbsp. milk (Adjust amount of milk to achieve desired consistency in icing. I usually end up adding 3 or 4 extra Tbsp. of milk to get a thinner flooding consistency.)
