Cake Mix Cookies

1 box chocolate cake mix (not Pillsbury)
2 eggs
1/3 cup oil

Roll dough into balls then roll in sugar. Place on baking sheet and bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes.

My sis-in-law, Kristen makes these, and they are really yummy. You can make these with any flavor of cake mix, but I love the chocolate rolled in sugar.

For homeade oreos do the recipe with Devil's Food Cake mix and do 1/2 cup oil instead of 1/3 and bake for 12 minutes. When you get the cookie sheet out of the oven gently tap it on the counter so the cookies flatten. When cool put cream cheese icing (4 oz cream cheese, 3/4 c. powdered sugar) between the two cookies. YUM!

Sounds really yummy. One question though, what is wrong with using Pillsbury?

Laura, Will you add me to this Blog? I feel guilty looking at all of your yummy dishes and not donating anything. I am a handicapped cook because I have peanut, egg and milk allergy children! However, I love to try something new and if I ever make anything good I will post my recipe. Thanks

Sprinkles' Lemon Buttercream Frosting

1 cup butter, softened 3 3/4 cups confectioners' sugar juice and zest of one lemon 1 tsp. vanilla 1/8 tsp. salt Combine butter, sugar, and salt and beat till well combined. Add lemon juice, zest, and vanilla and continue to beat for another 3 to 5 minutes or until creamy. I made this for lemon cupcakes for a baby shower and it was so good! I did add a little more sugar so it was a little stiffer and easier to pipe with a decorating tip.

Pizza on the BBQ

We are addicted to pizza on the barbecue. It's the yummiest homemade pizza. You've got to try it while its still good BBQ weather. 1. Turn your grill to a really low setting. 2. Make your dough (any old recipe), gather pizza sauce and mozzarella and the toppings of your choice. I hear Fresh and Easy has a pizza dough you just buy in a little bag, all ready to go. 3. Spray a piece of wax paper (or foil) with Pam and roll out your dough to a size that will fit on your grill. 4. Carefully flip the dough onto your grill and close the lid. Get all your other ingredients outside. It only takes a couple minutes for the dough to cook. 5. Flip the dough over and quickly top the baked side with sauce, cheese and toppings. Bert and I always do this part together so it goes a little faster. Close the lid to melt the cheese but don't burn the second side. Sometimes we even turn the grill off but keep the pizza on the warm grill. Walla! Pizza on the BBQ. You'll feel like you work at ...
