Pumpkin Cookies Recipe
Description
This recipe modifies a box cake mix by adding softened butter, cream cheese, egg, and vanilla to form a creamy dough. Chilling the dough for 30 minutes firms it for easier rolling. After chilling, the dough is shaped into balls and rolled in powdered sugar, which gives the cookies a slightly crisp, sweet outer coating once baked.
Baking at 350°F for 10-12 minutes produces cookies that are soft and moist inside with a delicate sweetness on the outside. The use of cream cheese provides a subtle tang and rich texture, while the cake mix simplifies preparation by containing pre-measured spices and leavening agents. Dusting extra powdered sugar after baking can enhance the appearance and sweetness.
