    Frequently asked questions

    What other cake mix cookies recipes can I make?

    Seriously, the amount of cookies that you can make is endless - strawberry, lemon, pumpkin, chocolate fudge. You are limited only by the flavor of cake mix you use. Then you can add any number of mix-ins to make even more variations - nuts, raisins, m&ms, chocolate chips...

    Can I frost these cookies?

    Sure! These cookies taste wonderful with cream cheese or vanilla frosting.

    How do I store cake mix cookies?

    You can store these in an air tight container for up to five days. You can freeze them in between pieces of parchment paper for 2-3 months.

    Make meal planning easy

    I am a big fan of  Eat At Home Meal Plans. Are you stressed about the cost of eating out or trying to decide what to make for dinner each night? Sign up for the plans, and get access to 4 separate meal plans each month (Traditional, Wholesome Traditional, Slow Cooker, and No Flour/No Sugar). Just print the plans, color-coded grocery lists, and recipes you want for the month. Don’t worry, there are so many options, even picky eaters will find something they like.

    When it is time for dinner, make that night’s recipe (choices include make-ahead, freezer meals, slow-cooker recipes, and other time-saving strategies) and you are all set.

    I know you have more important things to do than meal planning. Let someone else do it for you with Eat At Home Meal Plans. Monthly, quarterly and annual plans are available.
