Ingredients

Chocolate Cookies

1 box Chocolate Fudge Cake Mix
6 Tbs Butter softened
2 Eggs

Cream Cheese Frosting

4 oz Cream Cheese softened
2 Tbs. Butter softened
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1 ½ Cups Powdered Sugar

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line baking sheets with parchment paper or spray with non-stick cooking spray.
Mix together the cake mix, 6 Tbs. butter and eggs until well combined.
Scoop out by ½ tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets. I can usually get 20 to a pan.
Bake at 350 for 7 minutes.
Cool on a wire rack.
When cooled frost one cookie with the cream cheese frosting, then top with another.
For the cream cheese frosting, beat the cream cheese and 2 Tbs. butter together until very smooth.
Beat in the vanilla and powdered sugar. Mix well.
Store cookies in the fridge.

Notes

This cookie dough is very thick and kind of "gummy." It also takes a little work to get all the cake mix to mix in which makes it seem like there isn't enough liquid in this recipe, but there is. It just takes a little longer to get it to mix together.
