Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 box chocolate cake mix
  • 4 ounces cream cheese
  • 1/3 cup butter softened
  • 1 egg
  • 20 peppermint patties

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350F
  • Mix together cake mix, cream cheese, butter and egg.
  • Portion into 1 1/2 tablespoon-sized balls (I used a cookie scoop to help with this). You should end up with approximately 20 cookie balls.
  • Take one ball and flatten it in your hand. Place the peppermint patty on top and fold the cookie dough around the patty to cover it completely.
  • Repeat with remaining cookie dough.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, until cracked and no longer glossy.
  • Cool slightly before serving, or cool completely before packaging for gifts.
