Ingredients

  • 1-15.25 oz. box chocolate fudge cake mix {or any chocolate cake mix}
  • 1- 8 oz. brick cream cheese {softened}-full fat
  • 1/2 cup butter {softened}
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar {FOR SPRINKLING ON TOP}

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°.  Combine the cream cheese and butter in a medium bowl, cream together using a hand held mixer {or by hand}. Add in egg and vanilla, mix to combine. Finally add the chocolate cake mix {sift or whisk if there are lumps} and mix until everything is well combined and thick. 
  • Using a medium cookie scoop {or 1 1/2 tablespoons}, scoop mounds of dough onto a parchment {or silicone} lined baking sheet. 
  • Bake for 9-11 minutes or until the edges are set, they will appear to be a little under cooked but that is alright.
  • Remove your cream cheese cake mix cookies from the oven and let them cool on the cookie sheet for 10 minutes. Move to a cooling rack to cool completely. Sprinkle tops with powdered sugar.

Notes

Store cookies in an air tight container at room temperature for 4-5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
