Cake Mix Cookies - Easy and Really Good!


One cake mix will make about 2 dozen cookies.  They are moist and soft and yummy!  Would you like the recipe?
                                                Triple Chocolate Andes Mint Cookies
1 Betty Crocker Triple Chocolate Cake mix
1/2 oil
2 eggs
1 bag of Andes Mint Chips (I used only half a bag)

Mix the cake mix, the oil, and the eggs with mixer until all mixed.  Then stir in the chips.  Preheat the oven to 350.  Put about 1 tablespoon rounded scoop of cookies about 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.  Bake for 8-10 minutes.

Just a heads up - although the directions said 8 to 10 minutes to bake, my turned out best at 7 minutes - but it could be my oven, so watch you first batch closely.

I have also used the Dark Chocolate cake mix with chocolate chips and strawberry cake mix with white chocolate chips.  Cookies made from scratch are still better, but this is an easy go to when you need cookies fast!!!

Another tip - I store them with a piece of bread in the container so they stay soft.

From Twigs to Trees!

OK, girlfriends, I'm ready to show you what I have been working on for weeks and weeks.  I told you I was working on something for two special people - it is done!  Let me tell you who, what, when, where, and why.  For as long as I can remember I have given my girls a "Happy December" present.  I just love the Christmas season so much that I am ready to begin the celebration.  So on December 1 I would have a gift for my kids.  They might come home from school and find a Christmas shirt on their bed or I would present them with Christmas socks or a Christmas trinket, maybe cookie cutters or sticker book.  Just something.   For fun!  This year I made: Grapevine Christmas trees!!!!  I had lots of help!  My sister, Nancy, Mark, and Hank all helped me gather the vines.  Poor Hank got poison twice from helping me find vines!  Then I wrapped the vines around a tomato cage using the vines and thin wire. ...
