How To Make cake mix christmas cookies

  • 1
    Mix all ingredients together and roll into a log. and slice and put on cookie sheet and put in oven about 325 degrees and just let the bottoms get light brown and take out and cool on sheet before you take them off sheet

    I put on foil, until all have been cooked, then ice the cookie and let stand before putting in box or on platter...I make up a couple of weeks before Christmas and put in sealed plastic container till day of dinner to put out...or they will be eaten immediately.....
