Ingredients
1 (15.25 ounce) white cake mix
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
15 to 20 drops purple food coloring
1/2 cup store-bought frosting, tinted purple with food coloring
24 Hershey’s Kiss chocolates, unwrapped
Halloween nonpareils (sprinkles)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Add the cake mix, ol and eggs to a large bowl and stir until a dough forms.
- Add the food coloring and stir until the color is a well-blended vibrant purple.
- Use a cookie scoop to drop the dough onto the baking sheet, 2 to 3 inches apart.
- Bake in 350°F for 8 to 10 minutes.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and allow to cool on the cookie sheet for 2 to 3 minutes, then transfer to a wire cooling rack for about 30 minutes until completely cooled.
- If using store-bought icing, remove 1/2 cup from the container. Using only one drop at a time, add purple food coloring until you reach the desired shade of purple.
- Use a butter knife to add a small amount of frosting to the center of each cookie. Immediately press a Hershey’s Kiss into the frosting.
- Finally, top the exposed frosting with sprinkles.
