another recipe...

I think I might just have a separate blog/post thing for every recipe...haha this was the recipe that I was looking for and it looks super super easy! If you try it, let me know! I think this recipe I will try before the other! haha

Strawberry Cake Mix Cookies

One box of Strawberry Cake Mix (I've used 'em all, so pick your favorite)

1 egg, slightly beaten

One 8 oz tub of CoolWhip, or any generic frozen whipped topping

2 cups confectioner's sugar

Red food coloring (optional)

Combine all ingredients with an electric mixer.  Now here's where you have a choice:  Either drop by tablespoonfuls onto parchment lined cookie sheet first,   or you can drop tablespoonfuls into powdered (confectioner's) sugar before baking.    I tend to go back and forth.  Up to you.

Bake at 350 for approximately 10 minutes.  Check cookies, at about 8 minutes.  You don't want them to be crisp, just chewy.  Lightly browned around the edges.

Let cool, but when still slightly warm (slightly!) drop into powdered sugar to coat and then place back on cooling rack. 

Notes:  About food coloring.  This is up to you.  If you don't use the coloring, no biggie,  your cookies will just be pink.  But if you'd like a stronger color, more like strawberries, then I say go for it.  Just a drop at a time though, until you like what you see.  :-)

These cookies can get a bit aggravating because they'll be sticky before baking.  I just coat my hands/spoon/scoop (whatever you're using to drop the cookies) with some powdered sugar to try to help.

Tah-Dah!   You're done.  Enjoy!
