Ingredients

  • 1 box Vanilla Cake Mix (Standard size box containing flour and leavening)
  • 15 oz Whole Milk Ricotta Cheese (One small container; use whole fat for best results)
  • Almond Extract (A 'scootch' or small splash to taste)
  • Powdered Sugar Glaze (Optional, for topping)
  • Gold Sprinkles (Optional garnish)

Steps

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. 2

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the box of vanilla cake mix and the 15-ounce container of whole milk ricotta cheese.

  3. 3

    Add a small splash (a 'scootch') of almond extract to the bowl.

  4. 4

    Mix the ingredients together using some elbow grease until a thick, uniform cookie batter forms.

  5. 5

    Scoop the batter onto a baking sheet. Shape them slightly by hand if desired, as they do not melt or spread significantly during baking.

  6. 6

    Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 20 minutes. The cookies should be soft with a nice golden brown bottom, but not overly browned on top.

  7. 7

    Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool completely on the pan or a wire rack.

  8. 8

    Once cooled, top with a simple glaze and sprinkles if desired.

Notes

Variation: Use lemon cake mix and add fresh lemon zest for a citrus version. It is very important to let these cookies cool completely before glazing or eating to ensure the proper texture.
