Ingredients
The following ingredients have 12 Servings
- 8 tbsp unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 egg (room temperature)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 oz Neufchatel cheese (light cream cheese, room temperature)
- 15.25 oz box funfetti cake mix
- 1 - 2 tbsp colored jimmies
Instruction
- Combine butter, egg, vanilla, and cream cheese in a large mixing bowl and beat until thoroughly combined.
- Add cake mix, half of the box at a time, stirring just until combined.
- Stir in colored jimmies or sprinkles.
- Refrigerate the cookie for at least one hour.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Scoop out cookie dough and roll into balls.
- Place dough balls onto a parchment lined baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Use the bottom of a measuring cup to flatten the cookie dough into a disc-shape. Or leave as a ball if you want a more rounded cookie.
- Bake for 9 minutes - you don't want the cookies to brown at all!
- Let the cookies cool on a baking sheet for several minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Cookies can be stored in an airtight container for 4 to 5 days.
