My youngest daugther and I made these one afternoon and while they were fun & easy to make we all thought they were too sweet for our liking. It is a very cakey & sweet cookie.

I made this recipe to try and replicate the soft frosted sugar cookies at the latte stands in Seattle. They are a lot like Lofthouse cookies but they are called "Uncle Seth's". I used a white cake mix and added Cardamom & Cinnamon to the batter. it turned them into a more grown up cookie. I also used a store bought Cream Cheese Frosting and added a bit of red coloring to get the pink color. I also made them with buttercream frosting, equally good. They are better the next day after being stored in an airtight plastic container. My family absolutely went crazy for them. My son even posted about them on FB. I will be trying a few other recipes but this one is an easy go to!

These were quite yummy! I didn`t frost them, but I`m sure they`d be even better with frosting!
