Rolo Cookies

Another fabulous recipe from the Six Sisters' Stuff website!!!  I forgot to take a picture (because we ate them so quickly), so check out their website to see how great these turn out!!  I was afraid that the caramel in the cookie would get hard once they cooled, but they were soft and chewy the following day!! YUM!!

Ingredients:
1 pkg. Rolo's
1 box Devils Food Cake mix
2 eggs
1/3 c. oil

Directions:
Mix cake mix, oil, and eggs. Take a small ball of dough and form a ball around the rolo. (Only use enough dough to cover the rolo so it can spread through the cookie.)

Place on greased cookie sheet and bake at 350 for 7-8 minutes. Yields about 3 dozen.

Sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired.

Andes Mint Cookies

I have been searching for a good mint-y cookie that involves Andes mints (since they are Scott's fav) and I found a great one from the Six Sisters' Stuff website!!!  These cookies are so easy and so yummy!!!! Enjoy!!

Pardon the picture quality! 
It was from my phone!

Ingredients:
1 Devil's Food Cake Mix
1/2 cup oil
2 eggs
1 package of Andes Mints




Directions:
Mix cake mix, oil, and eggs together. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 6-9 minutes. Don't cook any longer than that! You don't want them to be overdone!
Take sheet out of oven and while the cookies are still very hot, place an Andes Mint on top of each cookie. In about 5 minutes, the mint will be melted. Take a spoon and smooth out each mint like frosting.
