Sooooo good! Can't believe such a simple recipe makes such a great dessert. I made the cookies smaller than the recipe called for just because I prefer smaller sized cookies. I'm glad I did because they are very rich and I doubt I could eat a whole one otherwise. Wonderful!

We looooved these! The taste is a more sophisticated version of the old sandwich cookie which appeals to both kids and adults and so easy to make! I really liked the suggestion to put the icing in a ziplock baggie, snip the corner and pipe the icing onto one cookie. This made filling the sandwich very fast, tidy and the cookie looks better too! I will make these again and again!

I love this recipe! I actually got it from a friend of mine, but she uses my absolute favorite cake mix, RED VELVET! The Red Velvet cookies are awesome, as are Carrot Cake and Butter Pecan. The Butter Pecan are very sweet though...I want to try it with just a yellow or white cake mix and see how they taste...Here are some changes/things I do: first, I don't roll them into balls, I just use the Pampered Chef small scoop and they turn out the perfect size. Also, my icing is a bit different. It won't taste so cream cheesey this way - I use 1 block cream cheese softened, 1 stick butter softened, 4 cups powdered sugar (which is one box), and 1 teaspoon vanilla....SO YUMMY!!! I keep these in the fridge also! Try the Red Velvet if it is available in your area... YUM-O!!

This recipe was really good. I cooked the cookies for about 10 minutes and at first they were a little harder than I would like, but I put them in an airtight container and the next morning they were soft. I gave it 4 stars because of the frosting. I added a lot more sugar, vanilla extract, and some milk. It was far to cream cheesey for my taste, but with a few small changes...the whole sandwich cookie was delicious. My kids love them!!

These were pretty good for some easy chocolate cookies, but the texture and flavor was pretty much the same as boxed brownies. I couldn't really taste the cream cheese in them so I would definitely suggest adding more.

This recipe is absolutely awesome! I made these for my daycare kids and they loved them. for the frosting I used canned milk chocolate and melted some carmels and added to the frosting and with the leftover melted carmel I drizzeled some over the cookies.All my daycare kids could say is nummy!! Thank you for this recipe..

I have made these cookies twice now, and they were a big hit both times. My 5 year old is able to help out and he loves that I don't have to get the big mixer out to mix the cookie dough. Tastes good even after freezing. Thanks for this!

My 10 year old son made these for Mothers Day and everyone LOVED it!!! Recommend to everyone!

delicious! My family loves these. I also took them to a wedding shower and they were a big hit! I recommend them to anyone. My husband thinks they are like "Oreo cakesters".

These cookies were simple and amazing! They took only a few minutes to make, but still produced a perfect cookie - you'd never guess they were so easy!!! A total keeper! They were perfectly chewy, which was what I was looking for - I cooked them for 10 minutes. They also came off the tray very easily, I didn't need the parchment paper that other reviewers mentioned needing. These will be fun to experiment with too...mint frosting sounds extra good, as does putting a scoop of ice cream in the middle and making some amazing ice cream sandwiches!!! Can't wait to make them again!!!

YUM -- so good and easy! Definitely a keeper!!

There is a reason this recipe has so many 5-star ratings. It is SOOOO simple and delicious! I am going to make sure to keep chocolate cake mix on hand so I can whip these up any time. These take 3 minutes to make and 9 to cook. How easy is that? And the chocolate cookie tastes so good you can eat it alone or experiment with dozens of fillings.

These were good and easy. My family ate them up in less than two days! I made my own cake mix from scratch cuz I didn't have any of the box but they still turned out great! Our store had a sale on the cake box mixes for a dollar a piece and I bought a bunch just to make this recipe! Thanks!!!!

I made this recipe yesterday, I followed it exactly except I used one chocolate fudge cake mix and one german chocolate cake mix. These are so good! I did make one-inch cookies because I felt the two-inch were too big as they are very sweet! A good fast recipe!

THIS RECIPE WAS DELICIOUS.I WILL MAKE THIS RECIPE FOR A LONG TIME. THANK YOU

Outstanding! I loved these because they are so unique and taste like little chocolate cheesecakes without the plate and fork to serve to a crowd. I was skeptical about the cake mix but I used two packages of devil's food cake mix and the cookies were extra chocolatey like ice cream sandwich cookies. I made the balls to flatten about half the size though so they turned out the size of a normal cookie rather than a giant one. Much more attractive this way. Also, I would cut the icing sugar in half next time. There was so much confectioners sugar that you could barely taste the cream cheese. I'll start with one cup and add to taste if necessary. I'm sure that way, it would have earned a 5-star rating from me. A keeper recipe for sure! I brought them to work and people actually came and found me after having one, usually with an "OMG" comment :) Enjoy! dee

WOW!! Great recipe. My husband came in late tonight but wanted a dessert. I threw these together and we had a great tasting snack in time for our favorite program. The only substitution was canned icing and it worked great! Update: I have since made this recipe with butter cake mix adding in a tsp of almond liquer and 1/2 cup finely chopped almonds. I put them togather with orange marmelade and they were fantastic.
