Ingredients

Directions

  1. Set your oven to heat up to 350°F.
  2. In a mixer bowl, combine the cake mix, your chosen food coloring gels, vegetable oil, and eggs until well blended.
  3. Place the dough in the refrigerator to chill for 15 minutes.
  4. Scoop out a tablespoon-sized portion of dough, form it into a ball, then roll it in icing sugar until fully coated.
  5. Put the coated dough balls into the freezer and leave them for 10 to 15 minutes.
  6. Arrange the frozen dough balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and gently press a monster eye candy into the center of each one.
  7. Return the baking sheet with the cookies to the fridge and chill for an additional 15 minutes.
  8. Bake the cookies for 6 to 8 minutes.
  9. Let them cool on the baking sheet briefly, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
