Indulge in the nostalgia of Little Debbie Cake Cookies—soft, buttery cookies topped with rich chocolate icing, perfect for sharing and creating joyful memories.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup Butter
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar (or brown sugar)
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 2 1/2 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract

  3. Add in the eggs and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  4. Whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking powder in a separate bowl. Gradually add this mixture to your wet ingredients. Don’t overmix!
  5. Scoop the dough onto your prepared baking sheets, about two tablespoons per cookie.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges start to turn golden.
  7. Prepare your chocolate icing while the cookies cool.
  8. Once cooled, generously drizzle or spread the icing on top of each cookie.
  9. Enjoy! Sit back, grab a glass of milk, and savor every delightful bite.
