Ingredients

  • 1 - 8 oz package cream cheese I used light, at room temperature
  • 1 stick unsalted butter at room temperature
  • 1 egg room temperature
  • 1/4 tsp Vanilla Butternut LorAnn Flavoring
  • 1 Butter Pecan Betty Crocker Cake Mix
  • 8 oz package Heath Toffee Chips
  • 3/4 cup pecans toasted and coarsely chopped
  • 1/2 pound powdered sugar

Instructions

  • With a mixer mix cream cheese, butter, egg, and vanilla butternut oil until smooth and fluffy.
  • Add in dry cake mix. The batter will be slightly stiff.
  • With a spoon stir in toffee chips and cooled pecans.
  • Roll into balls (I used a cookie scoop) about the size of a walnut. Chilling the dough will make them easier to roll into balls.
  • Roll balls in powdered sugar until coated.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 12 minutes.
  • Cookies will appear soft. Let cool on sheet for about 5 minutes and then transfer to a rack to completely cool.

Notes

Store in an airtight container.
