Happy Friday the 13th! If you’re still looking for something to make for Valentine’s Day, look no further!
These cookies are made from a chocolate cake mix, so it’s a no brainer. You could even have your kiddos help you out!
I found some festive sprinkles in Target’s dollar section and put them on half of my cookies.
Since these cookies come from Paula Deen, you can bet your bottom dollar that they’re just as sinful and delicious as all of her other recipes. The cream cheese makes these cookies melt in your mouth. They’re gooey, thick, and rich. Actually, extra rich.
