INGREDIENTS
½ cup (113g) unsalted butter melted or softened
1 15.25 ounce box cake mix (any flavor; see notes)
2 large eggs
1 ½ cups mix-ins see notes for variations
INSTRUCTIONS
If using softened butter, you’ll need a hand or a stand mixer. If using melted butter, you can use a mixer or do the following by hand.
Place butter, cake mix, and eggs in a large bowl. Stir or mix until combined and no lumps remain. Stir in mix-ins.
Scoop 2-tablespoon balls of cookie dough onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment or silicone baking mats. No need to space them; we are chilling the dough. Chill for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a second cookie sheet with parchment or silicone baking mat.
Space cookies 2-inches apart on cookie sheets. Bake for 10-13 minutes, or until they just lose their glossy sheen. These cookies stay puffy and will settle a bit as they cool but don’t become flat.
Immediately after removing from the oven press a few more mix-ins on top for decoration. Cool at least 10 minutes before removing from the cookie sheet.
Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.

Ingredients
Cookies:
2½ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup light brown sugar
½ cup unsalted butter room temperature
2 eggs room temperature
¾ cup Musselman's Cinnamon Applesauce
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon apple pie spice blend
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
Icing:
8 ounces cream cheese room temperature
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon half & half (or whole milk)
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Garnish with a pinch of apple pie spice blend
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a large baking tray with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Set aside.
In a medium-sized bowl stir together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and apple pie spice blend.
In a large mixing bowl, using a handheld mixer on medium-low speed, cream together the butter and light brown sugar for 1 minute or until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, until completely incorporated.
Add the vanilla extract and the applesauce and mix for another minute.
At a low speed, combine your flour mixture with your butter mixture for another 1-2 minutes or just until all the flour is incorporated. Do not over mix your batter.
Using a 1½ tablespoon (1.5-inch) cookie scoop, scoop out your batter onto the prepared baking tray 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes or just until lightly golden on the edges. Once your cookies have baked, allow them to cool on the tray for 5 minutes then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before frosting them.
While your cookies are baking and cooling you can make your frosting. In a medium-sized mixing bowl beat together, on medium speed with a handheld mixer, the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar for 2 minutes. Add the vanilla extract and half & half and combine until smooth. You can add a little more half & half if your mixture is not soft and spreadable but not too much because you want your frosting to hold its shape.
Once your cookies have cooled completely you can frost them with about a tablespoon of the frosting per cookie and sprinkle them with a pinch of the apple pie spice.
Notes
TIP: If your grocery store does not have an apple spice blend you can create your own by combining 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ¼ teaspoon ground cloves. Mix well.
TIP: Don’t worry if it looks like your batter is separating because when you add the flour mixture it will come back together.
