• 2 eggs
• 1/3 C. oil
• Chocolate Frosting:
• 3/4 C. butter, softened
• 1/4 C. unsweetened cocoa powder

• 2 C. powdered sugar, more if needed
• Mint M&M's, you'll need the red the white
• Nilla Wafers
• 1/4 , C. Melted chocolate
• Pretzels

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line pans with parchment paper.
2. Combine cake mix, eggs and oil together. Batter will be thick. If you you think too thick, you can add a touch more oil!
3. Make dough balls just smaller than a golf ball and place on pans, press down so they don't bake up too tall!
4. Bake for 7-9 minutes depending on how fudgey you want them to be.
5. Let cool.
6. Frosting: Beat butter. Add cocoa, vanilla and milk. Slowly add in powdered sugar until you reach your desired consistency. Add more milk to make thinner.
7. Use Wilton Candy Eyes or you can use white M&M's and add dot to the middle.
8:To assemble (see photos above) frosting cookies, place Nilla wafer, pretzels, then use a little frosting to stick on the red nose (red M&M) and eyes. If you want some reindeer other than Rudolph, just use brown M&M's or Reese's Pieces!
