Ingredients

The following ingredients have 12 Servings
  • 1 box of Vanilla Cake Mix
  • 1 box of Instant Vanilla Pudding 4 serving
  • 1/2 cup of fancy molasses
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 package of cream cheese
  • 1/2 cup of butter
  • 2 cups of icing sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla if wanted

Instruction

  • Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees.
  • Combine all of the ingredients for the cookies in a bowl and mix until there are no lumps. This will be an arm workout!
  • Grease or spray a 9x13 baking pan.
  • Place the cookie dough into the pan and spread out evenly; I butter my hands slightly and flatten it out.
  • Bake in the 350 degree oven for 20-25 minutes, until the cookie is set in the middle and the edges are crispy.
  • Remove from the oven and cool completely.
  • To make the icing:
  • Beat the butter and cream cheese together until smooth and creamy in a large mixing bowl. The paddle beater on a mixer works the best.
  • Slowly add in the icing sugar and continue to beat until all the sugar is added and the mixture is smooth.
  • Spread over the top of the completely cooled bars.
  • Slice into square and serve!
