I love this cookie recipe!  They are so easy and made with a white cake mix and a devil’s food cake mix.

Harvest Cake Mix Cookies
The recipe makes quite a few cookies.  They are great to treat someone or co-workers!  I love to bake and give away.  It just makes people happy!

I am a wife to an awesome husband, mother of four great kids, and a former middle school math teacher. I love collecting recipes and cookbooks! I have an obsession with food network and all things Paula Deen (love her)! Being able to share the things I make with others is so much fun for me. I have gotten so many cookbooks and torn so many recipes out of magazines! This is my way to really make use of them. I am starting this blog as a way to chronicle the recipes I’ve tried and pass them along. I hope everyone enjoys!!!

      Harvest Cookies were Sandra Lee’s original title of this recipe. When I follow the recipe of someone else, I don’t like to change their original name unless I completely change it and make it my own. Thanks for asking!
