The Christmas holidays are literally just weeks away now and my mind is already racing as I think about all the things I have to do to prepare. Whether your whipping up some sweet treats for your family or a large crowd, baking is a must over the holidays! Trudeau has you covered with all the kitchen essentials you need to make cookies for the holiday and beyond, plus they just look so darn cute it will make the task enjoyable!
Need a super fast recipe for a fun little cookie? This one is great when you are a on a time pinch, you can mix it all by hand, in one bowl and with only 3 ingredients! Keep a box of cake mix in your pantry (I totally do this) and you’ll always be ready to offer a tasty treat for guests who drop by or to surprise your kids play date friends. The kids can even help!
Cake Mix Cookies
Ingredients:
- 1 (18.25 oz) box of cake mix- any kind. (I’ve used Rainbow Chip for my cookies below)
- 2 Eggs
- 1/3 c. Vegetable Oil
Directions:
Heat oven to 375.
Mix cookie ingredients together.
The Trudeau 2 in 1 Large Spatula has clever design features including an integrated spoon rest and a dual ended handle that elevates this simple tool to a different level. Use the larger end for scraping the bowl without scratching cookware, the smaller end for spreading icing and then place it down on the counter without leaving a mess!
Put 1 inch heaps onto cookie sheet about 1 inch apart.
The fancy and functional non-stick Baking Liner from Trudeau is decorated with positioning circles for perfect placement of cookie dough that can also fold in half to adapt from large to small baking sheets. The heat resistant silicone liner protects bakeware and it’s easy to clean then rolls up for compact storage.
Cook for 7-9 minutes or until the edges start to brown.
