Cakes or Cookies? Why Not Both! 🍪🎂
One Cake Mix, Two Delicious Possibilities!
If there's one thing you know about me, it's that I LOVE to bake! ❤️ And when I find something that makes baking a little easier without sacrificing deliciousness, you know I'm going to share it!
Well, here's a fun idea from Tastefully Simple that I just had to share.
Did you know you can turn cake mixes into COOKIES?!
That's right! Those delicious Tastefully Simple cake mixes aren't just for cakes anymore. With a few additional ingredients, you can transform them into homemade cookies that look absolutely amazing!
And just in time for the holiday baking season, Tastefully Simple has put together a Cakes to Cookies Bundle!

Holiday cookie trays and exchanges
Last-minute guests
Homemade gifts for neighbors and friends
A fun afternoon of baking with the grandkids
Sweet treats for my crafting classes!
