Pumpkin Cake Mix Cookies
Description
Pantry items like canned pumpkin, cake mix, raisins, and a container of ready-made frosting are all you'll need for these tasty pumpkin cookies.
Ingredients
•
1 (15 1/4 ounce) package yellow cake mix
•
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
•
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
•
1 cup pumpkin puree
•
1/4 cup all-purpose flour, or more as needed
•
1 cup raisins
•
1 (16 ounce) container cream cheese frosting
Directions
1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
2
Combine cake mix, pumpkin puree, melted butter, and pumpkin pie spice in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until well blended. Add 1/4 cup flour; mix until incorporated. Add more flour as needed until dough is no longer sticky. Mix in raisins.
3
Drop spoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets.
4
Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack to cool, 8 to 10 minutes more.
5
Top cookies with cream cheese frosting. Allow to set before serving, 8 hours to overnight. Cookies will be a little "tough" after baking but will soften overnight.
