Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F.
In a mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese and butter until creamy using a handheld mixer or by hand.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture and combine well until incorporated.
Gradually add the cake mix, mixing until the dough is thick and well combined.
Scoop heaping tablespoons of dough onto a lined baking sheet using a medium scoop or 1 1/2 tablespoons.
Bake for 9-11 minutes until the edges are set. They may appear slightly undercooked.
Remove cookies from the oven and allow them to cool completely on the baking sheet. Once cooled, sprinkle with powdered sugar.

Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
For added flavor, consider mixing in chocolate chips or nuts.
