Red velvet cake mix cookies

Red velvet cake mix cookies are delicious and easy to make. Perfect for a Valentine's day or Christmas treat! To make you will need 1 box red velvet cake mix, 1 stick(1/2c) margarine, and 2 large eggs. Dump the cake mix into a large mixing bowl. Add the stick(1/2c) butter. Mix. Add 2 eggs. Combine eggs and cake mix. Mix well. Continue mixing until soft dough forms. Note: I found the dough with 2 eggs very sticky and added 2 large spoons of flour. Maybe use 1 egg instead. Drop by spoonfuls onto cookie sheet line with parchment paper. Bake at 350 for 10-12 mins. I also initially sprinkled powdered sugar on them after baking to make them prettier. However, while making my 2nd batch, I decided to roll them in powdered sugar before baking. I think rolling them in the powdered sugar before baking produced a softer, tastier cookie than suggested by the recipe. Enjoy!

Note: you do not need red velvet cake mix. You can simply add a few drops of red food coloring to devil's food cake mix to the desired shade of red. The recipe I used did say to use devil's food cake mix and add food coloring. I just happened to have a box of red velvet cake mix on hand. However, I will say, adding food coloring ( recipe calls for 1 whole bottle!)may also add to the stickiness, so beware.
