Ingredients
  • 1 box white cake mix
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 6 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • For the glaze:
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • Powdered sugar, for dusting
Preparation
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine cake mix, eggs, and melted butter. Mix until well combined.
  3. Using a tablespoon sized cookie scoop, drop dough onto prepared baking sheet, about 2 inches apart.
  4. Bake in preheated oven for 7-8 minutes. Remove from oven and let cook on baking sheet for 5 minutes before moving to a wire rack to cool completely. The cookies might look underdone, but they'll continue to cook on the baking sheet.
  5. While the cookies cool, make the glaze.
  6. In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the butter, sugar, water, and vanilla. Cook until sugar has dissolved, whisking constantly, 4-5 minutes.
  7. Spoon glaze over cooled cookies. Let set and dust with powdered sugar. Enjoy!
The glaze is everything!
