Ingredients

The following ingredients have 16 Servings
  • 1 package Duncan Hines dark chocolate fudge cake mix ((16.5 ounces))
  • 1 large egg
  • 4 ounces cream cheese ((softened))
  • 1/4 cup butter (softened (almost melted))
  • 16 snack size York Peppermint Patties
  • sprinkles (optional)

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • In a small bowl, mix the cake mix, egg, cream cheese and butter until it is all well combined. The mixture will be very thick.
  • Make 16 balls out of the chocolate batter.
  • Flatten each ball in the palm of your hand. Place a peppermint patty on each flattened ball and wrap the cookie dough around the peppermint patty so it is covered completely. Repeat with the remaining peppermint patties and dough.
  • Place the cookies on a lightly greased cookie sheet.
  • Sprinkle with colored sprinkles, if desired.
  • Bake for 10-11 minutes.
  • Allow the cookies to cool for 4-5 minutes on the cookie sheet, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Store in an airtight container.
