Ingredients
- 1 Pillsbury Funfetti cake mix
- 1 large egg
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1/4 cup butter melted
- Pink food coloring
- 3/4 cup sprinkles
Frosting:
- 1/2 cup salted butter softened
- 3/4 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/2-2 tablespoons milk
- Food coloring
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- In a small bowl, mix the cake mix, egg, cream cheese and butter until it is all well combined. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls. This makes about 44 balls.
- Roll the balls in sprinkles, then place them on a cookie sheet. Gently press down on the top of the balls to slightly flatten them.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. Move the cookies to a wire rack to cool.
- In a stand mixer bowl, with the mixer on medium speed, whip the butter for 2-3 minutes until it is almost white in color.
- Add in the powdered sugar, vanilla and 1 1/2 tablespoons milk. Add a drop of food coloring, if desired. Beat on low speed for 3-5 minutes, adding in another 1/2 tablespoon of milk if the buttercream needs to be thinner.
- Spread or pipe frosting on half of the cookie. Place another cookie on top of the frosting to make sandwiches. Store in an airtight container.
