Raspberry Thumbprint Cookies, Easy Cake Mix Cookie Recipe

If you have a sweet tooth, today is your day!  I’ve joined up with a group of talented bloggers to share our favorite Valentine’s Day recipes!  I’m sharing a super easy recipe that makes beautiful raspberry thumbprint cookies from cake mix!  When my girls were young I would keep several boxes of cake mix in the pantry just in case we got a craving for cookies after the stores were closed.  These cookies are pretty enough to serve for a tea or give as a gift.

Raspberry Thumbprint Cookies

• yellow cake mix
• 2 eggs
• 1/3 c vegetable oil
• raspberry jam
• white chocolate chips

Mix together the cake mix, eggs, and vegetable oil.  Use a 1 T scoop to measure the dough.  Roll 1 T of dough into a ball, place on baking stone, and press your thumb in the center.  Add about 1/2 teaspoon of the jam in the center.

Bake in a 375 degree oven for 10-12 minutes.  

When the cookies are completely cooled melt white chocolate chips in the microwave and drizzle over the cookies.

We have a “cookie secret” at our house so we NEVER burn our cookies — Pampered Chef baking stones!  Since I started using these I have never burned a cookie!  Plus they’re a lot easier to wash than my old baking sheets.
