Terrible little blogger lately

Sorry, I don't know why, just plenty to do around the real world that I've needed to be online far less.


I had a request for my pink cookie recipe and thought maybe others would care to have it also. It is super easy since it comes from a cake mix. Which also means you can adapt it simply by grabbing a different flavor cake mix.
1 box cake mix (above is strawberry, my favorite is chocolate, but try anything!)
1/3 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
Mix, drop by a small scoop onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 375 F for 7-9 minutes or until puffed and almost no indentation remains when touched. Cool one minute on pan, remove from pan and cool completely on wire rack. Makes about 22-24 cookies
These make wonderful sandwich cookies. Above is filled with a delicious vanilla frosting I found here at the cupcake project I didn't have vanilla bean paste, so I just used my homemade vanilla extract instead, and I just winged it, I didn't measure. The cookies also taste great with icecream in the center!
Disclaimer: I know these cookies are not healthy or even the tastiest, but sometimes you need a quick and fairly yummy cookie. This is that recipe!
I have a few other things I hope to post soon, but I'm waiting for them to be received before I show pictures.
My current projects include another tea towel tour swap on craftster and Halloween costumes.
Lore is going to be the 10th Doctor from Doctor Who
Liam is going to be Mario
Levi is going to be Lego Indiana Jones
Yes, they all came up with their own ideas! I just have to make them happen.
Tim and I had a ton of ideas, but we haven't been able to lock one down, so it will more than likely be simple.
