Ingredients

• 1 white cake mix
• 1 egg
• 8 Tablespoons butter, melted
• 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 24 Milky Way Simply Caramel Unwrapped Bites
• 3-4 Tablespoons cinnamon sugar

Preparation

Step 1

Beat together the cake mix, egg, and melted butter until a soft dough forms. Add the cream cheese and cinnamon and beat again until thoroughly combined. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Roll the dough into 24 even dough balls. Press each ball flat and place a Milky Way Caramel Bite in the center. Form the cookie dough around the candy bar and roll into a ball again. Roll the cookie dough ball in the cinnamon sugar and place on a baking sheet.
Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool on the cookie sheet for 2 minutes before moving to a piece of parchment paper. Let cool completely. Store in a sealed container on the counter. Makes 24 cookies.
