- 1 box red velvet cake mix
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 c vegetable oil
- 4 oz cream cheese, room temperature
- 4 tbsp butter, room temperature
- 1/4 tsp vanilla
- 2 c powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line cookie sheets with parchment or silicone mats.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat cake mix, eggs and oil until well combined. Dough will be stiff.
- Roll into 1-inch balls and place 2 inches apart on prepared pans. Flatten balls slightly. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until set around edges.
- Cookies will be very puffy, but flatten as they cool. Remove to wire rack to cool completely before frosting.
- For the frosting, beat cream cheese and butter until smooth. Mix in vanilla. Slowly incorporate powdered sugar, then whip until light and fluffy.
- Pipe or spread onto the bottom side of half the cookies. Top with remaining cookies to form sandwiches.
