Ingredients

  • 1 box Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ Cake Mix Chocolate Fudge
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1/2 can cherry pie filling, syrup drained off
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • Chocolate sprinkles, if desired

Steps

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 350°F. Blend cake mix, egg and softened butter in a stand mixer or food processor until a thick, fudge-like dough forms.
  • 2
    Scoop dough into 20 balls that are about 1 inch in diameter. Place on a greased cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. Flatten cookies slightly with the bottom of a glass. Then, using your thumb or the tip of a spoon, make a shallow indentation in the center of each cookie. Place a single cherry from the pie filling in each indentation
  • 3
    Bake 8-10 minutes, until set. Remove from oven and allow to cool on the cookie sheet for a minute, then remove the cookies to a rack to cool completely.
  • 4
    Beat or whisk whipping cream and sugar in a mixing bowl until stiff peaks form. Using a pastry bag fitted with a star tip, decorate each cookie with whipped cream and finish with chocolate sprinkles (if desired).
