There’s a time and a place for a cake mix. When you’re in a pinch, a boxed mix gets dessert on the table fast and allows you to check one more thing off your list!
But beyond cake, use these convenient mixes for cookies, too! Home cook Sherry Symmonds includes cream cheese for flavor and to keep her cake mix cookies moist. She also suggests getting imaginative with mixes and add-ins — any favorite combination will do!
Cream Cheese Cake Mix Cookies
1 box cake mix, any flavor
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
¼ cup butter, room temperature
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla, optional
1 12-ounce bag of semisweet chocolate chips, or your choice of add-ins such as flavored chips, candy, nuts, etc.
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Cream together butter and cream cheese. Add egg and vanilla (if using) and mix until well blended. Use an electric blender if desired.
3. Stir in cake mix a little at a time until well blended, then add any chips, candy or nuts.
4. Bake for 10 minutes, until edges are brown, and enjoy!
