CAKE MIX COOKIE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• In a bowl mix together the cake mix, oil and eggs. Do this by hand as it is very stiff. You are looking for everything to just come together to form a dough.
• Roll dough into 1" balls. Place about 2" apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
• Note: if dough is too sticky to roll into balls easily, refrigerate for a short time.
• Bake cookies 8 to 11 minutes at 350. Cookies should still be soft but the tops will have a cracked appearance when done.
• Remove cookies from baking sheets to cool.
• Allow to cool completely.
• Choose 2 cookies that are the same size and shape. Place about 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of frosting on the bottom of one cookie. Put the two cookies together bottoms facing each other to form the sandwich.
• Note: I like to use the following combinations, but feel free to experiment. Chocolate cookie with fudge frosting, chocolate cookie with vanilla frosting, white cake with vanilla frosting (add about 1/2 teaspoon of almond extract to the frosting), carrot cake cookies with chream cheese frosting, funfetti cookies with rainbow chip frosting (kids love this one for the colors).

CAKE-MIX MINT CHOCOLATE SANDWICH COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat two baking sheets with cooking spray.
• Beat the cake mix, eggs, butter and 1/4 cup water in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and no bits of dry cake mix are left. Stir in the chocolate chips and peppermint extract.
• Drop the batter onto the prepared baking sheets, using about 2 tablespoonfuls for each cookie (a small ice cream scoop will make this task easier) and spacing them about 1 1/2 inches apart. Bake until set around the edges but still soft in the center, about 10 minutes.
• Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes and then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely. Continue to bake cookies with the remaining batter.
• Place about 1 tablespoon marshmallow cream on half the cookies and top each with a second cookie, gently pressing on the marshmallow; it will continue to spread to the edges on its own in a few minutes.

ICE CREAM SANDWICHES FROM CAKE MIX

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Light spray a 13x9-inch pan with nonstick cooking spray. Line pan with aluminum foil and spray again.
• Beat cake mix, eggs, water and melted butter in a large bowl with electric mixer until well blended. Dough will be thick and sticky. Spoon dough into prepared pan. Cover with plastic wrap and press dough evenly into pan, using plastic wrap to keep hands from sticking to dough. Remove plastic wrap and prick surface all over with fork (about 40 times) to prevent dough from rising too much.
• Bake 20 minutes or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean. Cool in pan on wire rack.
• Cut the resultant cookie in half crosswise; Remove one half from pan. Spread ice cream evenly over cookie half remaining in pan. Top with second half; use foil in pan to wrap up sanwich.
• Freeze at least 4 hours. Cut into 8 equal pieces; dip cut ends in decoratie sugar or colored sprinkles which will adhere to the ice cream for a pretty presentation. Wrap and freeze sandwiches until ready to serve.

• Shape into 56 balls, using 1 tsp. dough for each. Place, 2 inches apart, on parchment-covered baking sheets.
• Bake 7 to 8 min. or just until edges of cookies are set. (Do not overbake.) Cool on baking sheet 2 min. Remove to wire racks; cool completely.
• Spoon frosting into medium bowl. Add reserved COOL WHIP; whisk until blended. Fill 2 cookies with 1 tsp. COOL WHIP mixture to make sandwich. Repeat with remaining cookies.

HOMEMADE CHOCOLATE SANDWICH COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
• Blend the above ingredients together with a pastry blender until mixed.
• Roll in balls about the size of a quarter and place on ungreased baking sheets. Make an even number of balls.
• Bake for 10 minutes. Let cookies stand on cookie sheet for 5-6 minutes before removing them to cooling rack. After cookies have cooled, put Cream Cheese Frosting (see recipe or use one can of pre-made frosting) between two cookies, putting bottom sides together.
• NOTE: Adding chopped pecans to the cookies without making them into sandwiches is also very good. Spice cake mix can be used in place of Devil's food.
