These are the prettiest cookies I have ever seen. I bet your boys were excited to come home from school and find them.

To make these cake mix cookies softer and better I think use regular cool whip in place of oil. They are so much better that way. Also can roll in confectioners sugar before cooking. Always remember to chill before cooking too.
