I have already started making promises to myself that when this weather gets better I'm going to start walking again. Ugh I hate to exercise. I have always been on a diet and I hate it. I live my life always fighting the battle.
Well with that said here's what I made today. Ha Ha I swear this is it! Slap my hands if I tell you I'm making something else.
Yummy Cake Cookies
This are super easy cake cookies with cream cheese frosting. I use to make these all the time when my kiddos were little. They are super easy and they don't take many ingredients to make. When I was a young mom they were the perfect cookie for me to bake.
Ingredients:
- 1 package cake mix, any flavor
- 2 eggs
- 1/3 cup oil
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Remove 3 tablespoons from the cake mix and set aside.
Add eggs and oil to cake mix and combine until smooth. If mix is too wet, add more dry mix. Drop in one inch balls on ungreased cookie sheet or baking pan.
Bake for approximately 7 minutes or until slightly browned, being careful not to overcook.
I use the canned cream cheese frosting since I'm doing it the easy way. Then put frosting in a decorating tube that I bought years ago from Pampered Chef to put the frosting on with next top with sprinkles.
Cute and yummy that's what I'm talkin about!!! Well after a couple of these I swear I'm goin cold turkey... or at least I'm going to try.

Pink. COOKIES!!!! They are pretty. I bet they taste great, too! I know what you mean. I have gained two pounds since my surgery because I could not exercise, and I starved myself (well...a little) during the holidays, and I still gained!!!! Meh!
ReplyDeleteI can so sympathise with you!!! Before I moved here to the south coast island I lived in eastern Canada and I know what it is like to be house bound, not able to walk (cause you might freeze to death) and craving comfort food like crazy!!!
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't help that you make such yummy looking cookies lol !!!
What I found I did alot too was watch cooking with Paula Dean!!!
Spring is around the corner and you can walk it off in no time!!

Oh- I hear you~ I am a baker too and I love to bake when it is cold and crummy outside. I have never made cookies out of a cake mix before. WHAT are you thinking putting that recipe out there for all of us "quick fix bake it" addicts? Does the saying Misery Loves Company mean ANYTHING to you?;>) lol Thanks- I will probably be trying these tonight-seriously...lol Hugs-Diana
ReplyDeleteI hear you! If it makes you feel any better, I just polished of a box (yes an entire box) of Little Debbie Heart Cakes. Somehow telling someone about this makes me feel better. I might need to attend the weight watchers meeting with you, especially after the 6-12" they're predicting for OK tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteI make the same cookies, but in chocolate. Then I smear the cream cheese frosting in between 2 cookies! Talk about needing Weight Watchers!!! :) I found you on Debbiedoo's.
