Then I covered the top of the cookie with miniature pastel butter mints pressed into the icing in alternate colors. After the icing dries a little, I placed the cookies in a plastic container separating the layers with waxed paper. After about 12 hours, the cookies picked up the most wonderful butter mint flavor. The multicolor pastel mini mints made them beautiful as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-563191179327164441.post-64414824104827555452013-05-31T19:04:19.723-04:002013-05-31T19:04:19.723-04:00I just wanted to let you know that I found this ge...I just wanted to let you know that I found this gem on pinterest and I made them to put in my Christmas cookies...turned out AMAZING and so super easy...They are always a huge hit and everyone loves them!

I did NOT like these cookies at all. The white cake mix did not provide enough flavor (might experiment with a different flavor of mix). I barely got two dozen cookies and that was using a very small scoop. The cookies had a biscuit-like texture, not pleasing to the tongue. On a good note, the kids loved them, but I think it was mostly for the frosting. I would not take these out of the house to share, but they would work in a pinch if I HAD to have cookies. Definitiely unpinning and sticking to the original Loft House cookies.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-563191179327164441.post-81499392330129724752013-01-25T12:21:38.480-05:002013-01-25T12:21:38.480-05:00Very yummy!

I found the cake w/pudding in the mix, but the only size cake mix I (well, hubby) could find was 15.5. Will that still work? If not, I have a smaller one (Wegmans brand regular white), where I guess I could take some from that box. I'd rather not have to do that. What would you suggest?<br />I was so happy when my son picked these (off my pinterest board) rather than the cut out cookies! He loves sugar cookies & requests them every year. These look super yummy, but I have to say that I am really cheating this year, I bought frosting in the jar! TIA!!!

So, it just depends on the person. Thanks for sharing though.
