    Grinch Cake Mix Cookies



    My heart has definitely been feeling two sizes too small this December.   These Grinch Cookies perfectly summed up my mood.  


    Cake mix cookies are super simple to make. All you need is a cake mix, 2 eggs and vegetable oil.  To put the Grinchy spin on them, I added green food coloring, rolled them in powdered sugar and added a candy heart.


    Combine the cake mix with the eggs, oil and food coloring.  Use a hand mixer until the dough comes together and then refrigerate it for about an hour. 


    I like to use a scoop so that the cookies bake evenly.  Drop it into some sifted powdered sugar and roll it around. 





    Press a red candy heart onto each cookie.  Bake them for 8 minutes and then let them cool on the sheet for a couple.  Move them to a wire rack and let cool completely. I got 22 cookies from the 15.25 ounce cake mix.

    Copycat Dunkin Donuts Egg White & Veggie Omelet Bites

    I'm a huge fan of the Dunkin Donuts Power Breakfast sandwich, so when I started seeing ads for the new Egg White & Veggie Omelet Bites I stopped in and gave them a try.  They were delicious, but of course, I knew I could make them at home.

    I wasn't sure I was going to blog these stuffed waffles since it was the first time I tried using the new iron but since I'd already taken the pics as I went I figured, why not? They aren't perfect but they are delicious!
