Happy cookies✿

Hello, everyone! How've you all been?

I've been well myself, but it's so cold now!

To me, it might as well be Christmas as soon

as it turns this way, haha.

I'm going to an early Christmas party

at the local senior home tomorrow, and 

they're having a bingo game to play for presents.

I was thinking,
"What could I give a senior that they'd enjoy?"

And it hit me: cookies, of course!

Moving on to the delicious part...

The first thing you need is Devil's Food Cake mix!

Yes, cake mix.

This is the best part of the cookies!
Who'd ever think to use cake mix? I didn't before these.
You do not follow the directions on the box; remember!

Next, you add  1/2 cup oil, and two eggs:

And of course, you mix it!
Use your hands, and mix it until all the light

brown cake mix is gone. It'll be like dough,
instead of like regular cake-mixed batter.

Now you take a normal sized spoon
(not big and not small)
and roll them in to a ball, like bellow!
Now you might want to put some powder

sugar on your hands so it doesn't make your

hands as sticky; since this recipe requires that

kind of sugar, anyway.

Next, you roll the dough in the powdered sugar!
It's important you cover as much of the cookie

as you can, because it's going to get baked in to

the cookie! Afterwards put them in a cookie sheet
far enough apart so they can cook.

I didn't have a cookie sheet, so I had to

use a cake pan. It didn't bother them, though.

Then set the oven at 375 and let it preheat,

then put them in the over for about 10-15 minutes!

Once time's up, take them out, and let them cool!

You can put them on a plate for your guests,

and you can all share them ♡

Of course, the other option is to put

them in a cute can and give them as Christmas gifts!

Since mine are going to be for other people tomorrow,

that's what I chose to do.

If you try them, let me know

how they turn out!

Mine turned out deliciously,

and even after they've cooled,

they were soft in the middle.

Happy Holidays!

Cake ✿

Good evening, everyone!

It's about 7:10pm here, and I'm eating

dinner, chicken and rice ♥

Maybe you've noticed, but I've

changed my Blogspot theme today!

I worked really hard on it,

so I hope you guys like it, haha ♪

Anyway,

today I baked a cake!

It's a chocolate cake with fudge in the

middle, and then chocolate frosting on top ♥

It's going to be so sweet!

This is the most chocolate I've seen in a cake!

It may end up being too sweet for me, but I'm going

to persevere and make it anyway!

Oh, the icing:

And so,
first up is making the mix ♥

I just love cake batter, so I'd really rather

have eaten it this way, even if it

did make me a little bit ill afterwards...

But I didn't, and I added the fudge on!

The fudge sinks in to the cake,

and in the end gives it a crater like look,

and it's actually pretty neat to watch bake,

although I didn't have any photos of it.

And then, violá ♪

The cake is finished!

 

 The smell was so good,

it was hard to resist diving right in to it!

I couldn't wait to try it very long,

so it was only until it wouldn't fall apart.

I have to say, I love warm cake ♥

In the end it was a little too chocolatey for me,

and I didn't end up eating much of it...

But I still enjoyed it ♪
