All I have on hand is Cherry Cordial kisses, do you think they would work??
The recipe says to use an unwrapped hug….
They will be fine, but your cookie will be cherry flavored.
How to roll them into balls and into sugar when the dough is so sticky??
The dough should not be sticky when adding 2 eggs and 1/3 cup of oil. You could add a little flour or refrigerate the dough to set up a little. I’m hoping you didn’t make the cake according to box directions. Just include the ingredients in the recipe. Sorry it was so sticky for you.
I had the exact same issue twice, I followed the recipe and did everything it said but it was so sticky that I had to get an ice cream scooper and that hardly worked too
