Homemade Chocolate Sandwich Cookies by Char J.


Ingredients

  • 2 (18.25 ounce) packages devil's food (or chocolate) cake mix
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup butter

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Blend the above ingredients together with a pastry blender until mixed.
  3. Roll in balls about the size of a quarter and place on ungreased baking sheets. Make an even number of balls.
  4. Bake for 10 minutes. Let cookies stand on cookie sheet for 5-6 minutes before removing them to cooling rack. After cookies have cooled, put Cream Cheese Frosting (see recipe below, or use one can of pre-made frosting) between two cookies, putting bottom sides together.
  5. NOTE: Adding chopped pecans to the cookies without making them into sandwiches is also very good. Spice cake mix can be used in place of Devil's food (with the cream cheese center, it's really good).
Cream Cheese Frosting

2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese
½ cup butter
4-5 cups powdered sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract

Cream together the cream cheese and butter (both softened) until creamy.  Mix in the vanilla, then gradually stir in the powdered sugar.  Store in the refrigerator after use.
