Ooey Gooey Cookies, That Are Made Easy!

Already Tuesday? How did that happen so quick? I remember posting on Saturday....that went by fast! Anyway, it is getting colder over here every day - this morning it was 20 degrees. Uh, yeah, that's cold. Very cold. It was snowing a couple days ago too, but that's all gone now. I can't believe it is almost winter. I can't wait for it to get colder so I can go snowboarding with my brothers, that is the highlight of my winter every year. Don't worry, there will be some pictures of us snowboarding on here in a couple months.
Here are some cookies that are so soft and gooey in the middle - yummy! The sprinkled powdered sugar on top makes them look so pretty.


"Gooey Butter Cookies"


1 8oz. pkg. cream cheese
1/2 c. butter, softened
1 egg
1/4 tsp. vanilla
1 yellow cake mix
1/2 c. powdered sugar
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, cream together the cream cheese and butter. Stir in egg and vanilla. Add cake mix & stir until well blended. Powder sugar your hands well. Roll balls into 1" or 2" and roll balls thoroughly in powdered sugar. Place 1" apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 10 minutes. Leave on cookie sheet for 3 minutes or more before removing to cool on wire rakcs.

These look so yummy! I have made cake mix cookies before, but not with cream cheese. I need to try this with a spice cake mix!
