Directions

  • Step one

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray cookie sheet with cooking spray.

  • Step two

    In a medium bowl, combine cake mix, melted butter, and eggs. Beat with an electric mixer until completely smooth.

  • Step three

    Using a cookie scoop, form dough into balls, about 1 tablespoon each. Drop balls onto the prepared cookie sheet, 3 inches apart. Bake 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool and remove to a cooling rack.

  • Step four

    While the cookies are baking, combine peanut butter, powdered sugar, and milk. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth and fluffy, adding a little more milk if needed to get a smooth consistency.

  • Step five

    Spread about 1 tablespoon on the bottom side of a cookie and press the bottom of a second cookie on top to form a sandwich. Repeat with remaining cookies.
