Pinterest Wins!

We all pin tons of recipes and usually never even look at them again! So i'm going to continue doing Pinterest wins or Flops! I have 2 wonderful recipes that i have found and tried so i will share them with you along with the original blog post or pin to give everyone credit!

first off the homemade brownie mix- its a very simple and tasty recipe, ive made them a number of times and have even made ahead and stored them in my pantry! Everyone always loves them plus its inexpensive and i always have the items on hand! Super quick and simple for company =) I suggest doubling the recipe because it does make a small batch.
Recipe-
Dry ingredients if you want to make mix ahead of time---
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup flour
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking powder

wet ingredients to add before baking--
 2 eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 tsp vanilla

Bake at 350 in a greased 8x8 or 9x9
12-15 mins or however you like them mushy, cripsy... etc.. enjoy!

Cake box cookies---

I saw youtuber i watch make these and  i have also pinned this in the past so i decided to go for it!

You can use any cake mix you prefer i did lemon ...they were pretty tasty- the batter was extremely sticky though so warning.

Recipe-

1 box of cake mix
2 cups of cool whip (which is 1 -8 oz container)
1 slightly beaten egg
1 cup or so of powdered sugar

Mix ingredients together roll into balls then roll into powdered sugar then place onto greased cookie sheet, i then smooshed them with the bottom of a drinking glass and baked at 350 for 7 to 9 mins..basically till they get a little golden around the edges or however you like your cookies softer or crisper!

They were yummy and you could do many flavors! I whipped up both of these sweets for when my aunts, mom and grandmother were going to come over to have with coffee! They were both a hit!

Enjoy--Happy Baking---
