If you've ever walked through the food court at the mall, you've been tempted by those huge, scrumptious cookies with icing all over them. One time, (in college) I bought the sandwich kind with thick icing in the middle of two chocolate chip cookies the size of my hand. Mmm. That was good. As my hips can still attest to several years later. It was worth every bite. And I remember the time long ago that my mom found a recipe for making one at home with a cake mix, and yes, it was so good. It's been awhile since I've thought about making one, but as I was standing here in the kitchen wondering what in the world I was going to make so my daughter could have her alternative snack in her Truth Trackers Valentine's party tonight, I remembered them. And I just so happened to have a cake mix on hand. So, here's to hoping she likes it! {I'm making a large one and then using a heart shaped cookie cutter to make smaller ones from it.}
Giant Cookie {Dairy-Free, Egg-Free, Peanut-Free}
1 cake mix {read the labels to find one your child can eat. I bought Duncan Hines Strawberry Supreme which contains wheat and soy and has been processed around tree nuts. This one is okay for her.}
3 tsp Ener-G Egg Replacer + 4 Tablespoons warm water, mixed well {OR 2 Eggs if you are not allergic}
1/3 cup vegetable oil
Vegan Chocolate Chips, optional - I chose not to use them this time.
Mix all ingredients well. Roll out onto a cookie sheet in the shape you want. You can bake it and then cut shapes or cut shapes first. Frost as desired. Serve!
Wasn't that easy??
