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!

Happy Birthday, Twilla!

I made some cupcakes with coconut cream cheese frosting to celebrate my friend Twilla's birthday. I wanted to make Twilla's cupcake extra special, so I used gold luster dust mixed with a little water to paint the edges of the fondant flower and to make her name sparkle.
