Ingredients

• Cookies:
• 1 box Pillsbury Purely Simple White Cake Mix (or the chocolate cake mix!)
• 2 eggs
• 1/3 C. oil
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract
• Green Frosting:
• 3/4 C. butter, softened
• 2-3 C. powdered sugar
• 2 tsp. vanilla extract
• green food dye
• Fruit by the Foot (the Target store brand is best because its not as wide, and they dont come with designs cut into them)
• red candies (mini M&Ms, red hots, or sprinkles)

Directions

• 1. Preheat oven to 335 degrees and line pans with parchment paper.
• 2. Combine cake mix, eggs, oil and vanilla extract. The dough will be thick so you can either mix it by hand to get a workout or use a mixer.
• 3. Scoop out dough balls the size of walnuts and lightly flatten onto the pan. (Just a gentle pan will do to keep them from baking up too tall.)
• 4. Bake for 8-12 minutes.
• 5. Let cool.
• 6. Frosting: Beat butter and 2 cups powdered sugar. Add more powdered sugar until you reach your desired consistency. Add vanilla extract and green food dye.
• 7. Pipe frosting on in a circle to create your wreath (piping tip shown in photo).
• 8. Use your Fruit by the Foot to make bows and then place those on top of the cookie wreath. Finish off with red candies for your berries.
