The Best Ever Gooey Butter Cookies image

I like this recipe because you make the dough one day and bake the next. After you frig it over night the dough is easier to work with. I got this recipe from my sister, she's the one that told me to frig the dough overnight.

Time 20m

Yield 24-36 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, softened
8 ounces cream cheese (soften)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg
1 (18 1/2 ounce) box butter recipe cake mix
8 ounces powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Mix the butter ( I melt it in the microwave) and cream cheese ( I mix by hand with a wooden spoon, but any spoon would work).
  • Add vanilla and the egg mix together.
  • Add the Butter flavor cake mix.
  • Put in the frig overnight.
  • The next day.
  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Spray cookie sheet very lightly ( if you use parchment paper don't spray cookie sheet, I prefer the parchment paper).
  • Roll dough into balls (about the size of a walnut), roll into powdered sugar.
  • Put onto cookie sheet ( I put them 3 in a roll and space out, and only have 4 rolls).
  • Bake 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Remove from oven, sprinkle with powdered sugar.
  • Let stand on cookie sheet for a few minutes.
  • Then remove and let cool.
