Spice Cake is the one box-cake that I lovelovelove. really. srsly. LOVE.
Then, while browsing around the foodie blogosphere, I ran across recipes for Spice Cake Cookies!
OMG Good!
SWEET!!
but GOOD!
I found the one I liked best on The Crepes of Wrath
I liked it the best because it was so simple.
Ingredients:
1 Box of Spice Cake Mix (do not follow directions on box. disregard them entirely)
1 stick of softened butter
1 egg at room temperature
Mix everything up
Roll into balls & then flatten the balls a little
Place on cookie sheet and bake at 350 for about 8-10 mins (depending upon the size of your cookies)
Cool on a rack.
When they are completely cooled, spread butter cream frosting on the bottom of one cookie & stick to the bottom of another cookie.
voila!
Butter Cream Frosting :
(bear in mind that all recipes for butter cream frostings are merely guidelines. there's no exact science to it & what you put in it and how it comes out really depends upon your preference. the following is my general preference, but that's subject to change as well. )
1 stick of butter
a bunch of powered sugar (roughly 2 cups)
1 teaspoon of vanilla
1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon
1 Tbs of milk
beat with electric mixer until smooth. add sugar & milk until you achieve the consistency that suits you best.
