Frosted Mini Snickerdoodles - Holiday Baking

This was in our 2017 baking kit but I used it for Valentine's Day.  You can use it for any day as the mix is available year-round.  Like St. Patrick's day - add green food coloring or use green sprinkles.  I used a small melon baller to form the balls of dough.  Works perfectly.

Ingredients:

1 pkg Cinnamon Muffin Melt Mix
1 large egg
6 Tbsp butter, melted
1 (16 oz) container cream cheese frosting
chopped nuts, optional
sprinkles, optional


Instructions:

1.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  In large bowl, combine Cinnamon Muffin Melt Mix packet 1, egg and butter; mix until dough forms.  Using a teaspoon, scoop dough and form into balls.

2.  In small bowl, pour contents of Cinnamon Muffin Melt Mix packet 2.  Roll dough balls in sugar mixture and place on a large greased baking sheet.  Flatten dough slightly.


3.  Bake 8 minutes.  Cool completely.  Frost.  Sprinkle with nuts and/or sprinkles if desired.  Store in an airtight container.

Makes about 5 dozen.

Make Ahead & Freeze:  Prepare step 1.  Place in a gallon freezer bag or storage container between sheets of wax paper.  Seal well, label and freeze.  Thaw completely.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and continue with step 2.
