Do these need to be refrigerated because of the cream cheese frosting?
I am always a food poisoning freak. I am always taking extra precautions, just in case, because I never want anyone to get sick.
With these cookies, they are actually more delicious, when they are refrigerated. They honestly taste better, and the cream cheese frosting tastes more delicious, cold.
We definitely recommend refrigerating them. They will be fine sitting out for an hour or so, when serving, but refrigerating them is definitely recommended.
Why did my cookies go flat after I took them out of the oven?
My cookies did go flat a little after taking them out of the oven and cooled. However, this will depend greatly on what kind of cake mix you use.
Most of them will have the same ingredients, but they could use more or less baking soda or flour, which helps the cookies grow up and out.
You can always add a dash extra to your dough, but even if they are a little flat, they will still be delicious.

- In a large bowl combine cream cheese, butter, milk, and vanilla. Add the powdered sugar 1 cup at a time, mixing well with each addition. If consistency is too stiff, add more milk.
