Confetti Cake Sandwich Cookies

I have been on a cookie baking kick lately. So, thanks to my recent obsession with cookies, here is another amazing cookie recipe that is really pretty simple.

Confetti Cake Sandwich Cookies

Ingredients (Cookies)

2 boxes of Funfetti or Rainbow Chip cake mix

1 cup vegetable oil

4 eggs

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pour cake mix into a large mixing bowl. Mix eggs and oil together thoroughly in a separate dish, then stir into cake batter. Drop dough into small, rounded teaspoons on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes. Remove from baking sheet and let cool completely before adding icing.

Ingredients (Icing)

¼ cup butter or margarine

¼ cup shortening

1 tsp vanilla

2-3 cups powdered sugar

2-3 Tbsp. milk

Several drops of food coloring (if desired)

Directions

Cream butter and shortening together on medium speed until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla. Gradually add sugar, beating well and scraping down sides of bowl often. Add milk and beat until light and fluffy. If it appears too dry, add more milk.

Beat in food coloring, if using.

Finally, ice the bottom of the cookies, then stick them together like a sandwich.
