Ingredients
Cookies
- 1 15 ounce white cake mix* *see notes
- 1/4 cup flour
- 2 egg whites
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup candy canes crushed
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
Frosting (optional)
- 3 cups powdered sugar
- 2-3 tablespoons milk
- candy canes crushed, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, mix cake mix, flour, eggs and vegetable oil. When well mixed, fold in crushed candy canes and white chocolate chips by hand being careful to not overmix.
- Line cookie sheets with parchment paper. Using a 2 tablespoon cookie dough scoop, place 2 inches apart. Using the palm of your hand or the bottom of a pint glass, press cookies down to about 1/2 inch thickness.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes or until they start to crack, but right before the brown. Remove and allow to cool fully.
- When fully cooled, mix powdered sugar and milk until smooth. Drizzle over cookies and sprinkle with crushed candy canes.
