These cookies are so easy to make and only has 6 ingredients you need to buy. And one of those is a boxed cake mix.
To achieve that perfectly chewy cookie, there are a few tips I like to use.
By whipping the butter and cream cheese you are adding in air to the batter which will make them light and fluffy.
Chilling your cookie dough is essential to further blend your ingredients (no grainy sugar), but also helps to make for an even chewier cookie!
I first put the dough in the fridge, covered or in an airtight container. Chill for about 30-60 minutes. Then if you want to give it more chill time, be sure to remove dough to thaw a bit before balling.
Another tip is to customize the cookies. Change the cake flavor, add sprinkles to the powdered sugar when you toss dough, or add something like crushed peppermint.
