White Chocolate Cake Cookies With A Chocolate Heart

Are you looking for a unique recipe for Valentine’s Day? Check out this recipe for White Chocolate Cake Cookies With A Chocolate Heart. These are super cute to make for your kids, significant other, or your co-workers! They look so pretty and they are made with a cake mix!

Just add a few ingredients to your mixer and you will get these very tasty cookies. I love the sanding sugar. It almost looks like it is covered in glitter. The chocolate heart in the middle is the perfect touch. Or you could change it out for other pieces of candy like a Hershey Kiss, or a Dove Square.

You can even switch out the sugar to a colored sugar. These cookies would be gorgeous with a pink or red sugar coating.

This is also a fun cookie to make with your kids. My daughter loves to drop cookie balls into sugar and then add the chocolate heart to the top. It’s a great way to spend time with your kids!

This original recipe was made with an 18oz cake mix when many cake mixes are now just 15 oz. So if you only have a 15 oz cake mix – just add 1/4 cup of flour.
