Whip up a cookie with a recipe too easy to believe, from The Ultimate Cake Mix Cookie Book

Makes 5 dozen cookies

Ingredients

• 1 (18.25-ounce) package yellow cake mix
• 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
• 1 cup chunky-style peanut butter
• 1 large egg
• 60 milk chocolate “kiss” candies, unwrapped

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix the cake mix, condensed milk, peanut butter, and egg in large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed 1 to 2 minutes until blended.

2. Shape dough into 1-inch balls and place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.

3. Bake 9 to 12 minutes or until light brown around edges. Immediately push a kiss candy, flat side down, into the center of each cookie. Transfer to wire racks with spatula and cool completely.

Variation for Peanut Butter Blossoms

Peanut Butter Caramel Blossoms: Prepare as directed but use chocolate-covered caramel candies (e.g., Rolos) in place of the kiss candies.
