Do you like baking, but don’t always want to take all the time and effort it takes.  Or don’t have all the extra equipment to make your baked goods look extra special?  Well these Frosted Funfetti® Cake Mix Cookies will change your mind about baking!

You can find the Pillsbury Filled Pastry Bags in the frosting section of the baking isle at Walmart.  They come in 3 varieties; Cream Cheese, Vanilla, and  Chocolate, so you can mix up your Funfetti® cookies or other baked goods however you want!  Imagine decorating a birthday cake and look like a hero when you bring it to the table.

You can purchase the pastry bags at Walmart. They are so easy to use, the whole family will love getting in the kitchen and baking together. Let the kids swirl on the frosting and put on the sprinkles!

What Do You Need For Cake Mix Cookies

  • The cake mix, pick your flavor!  Chocolate, vanilla, Funfetti®…you name it!
  • Eggs. Just regular whole eggs is what you need.
  • Oil. Vegetable or canola oil works great.  You may be able to use melted butter instead, but I haven’t tried it that way.

And These are extra fun because they are topped with frosting. To make things easy I used Pillsbury Filled Pastry Bags, but you can easily use a homemade frosting or even just skip it all together! If I am using homemade I always follow the recipe on my Frosted Sugar Cookies recipe for the frosting.

How To Make Funfetti Cookies

  1. In a large bowl mix together the came mix, eggs, and oil until it forms a dough.
  2. Scoop balls of dough onto a baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes until the edges just start to get golden.
  3. Remove from the oven and let cool on a baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
  4. Once the cookies have completely cooled top with frosting and add your sprinkles!

Storage

These cookies will last for 3-4 days in an airtight container. You can freeze them as well, but if I am freezing them I like do this before I frost them. The frosting will change in texture if you freeze it, so it is best to do that after they are thawed.
