I promise, this isn’t becoming a recipe blog. But all these recipes I found last month are begging to be shared. And this one, in particular, is top-notch: Butter Crisp Cookies. They are slaying me. I cannot walk away. And they are so cheap and easy I can’t stop making them. I’m doomed.
Ingredients:
One box Pillsbury "pudding in the mix" yellow cake mix
1 egg, slightly beaten
3/4 cup butter, melted
1 cup Rice Krispies
Instructions:
Blend all ingredients together. Dough will be crumbly. Form into tight 1-inch balls, place on cookie sheet and flatten slightly. Bake in 350 oven for 10-12 minutes. Give them away to neighbors so you don’t gain 12 pounds.

I love cookies made with cake mixes! I have a peanut butter cookie recipe using a cake mix that is TO DIE FOR!!
Ooooh..I’ve been craving something sweet, too. They do look marvelously tempting! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
Mmm, the krispies are intriguing. I may have to try these tomorrow.
Those look and sound so yummy! And they seem dangerously easy! Um – you know it’s good when you start with that quantity of butter. 🙂
Oh, YUMM! These look so good and easy. I’m all about anything EASY and DELICIOUS!! I’ll be trying them very soon.
Yummy! I love cake mix cookies, but I’ve never seen one with Rice Krispies added. That sounds great.
I especially enjoyed your give them away comment. That is so me, if I don’t take them somewhere to share, I have a hard time resisting cookies and usually wind up eating most myself.
Oh, yeh, I’ll be making these.
You are funny! I miss you! H
Those cookies look so good…I am printing it right now!
Thanks!
Have a great weekend!

You had me at cheap and easy.
Those look yummy & so easy to make! Thanks for sharing!
mmmm I love making cookies! They are so perfect for any occasion. I think you should do a favorite cookie recipe works for me wednesday. 😉
Oh my those look good! I will make those really soon!!!
Wow! Those look and sound good. I think I gained some weight just thinking about them!
Oh I love this idea. I make a chocolate cookie with a chocolate cake mix. I love it because it is so easy. I blogged about it a while ago. I am going to have to try this version though. It looks really good. Thanks!!
We’ve made these before with lemon cake mix. Very tasty! I’ll bet the yellow cake mix ones are very good, too! Thanks for the reminder of this great “recipe”
Yeah and thank you! I needed something to keep my youngest from blowing a gasket tonight when oldest goes to Build A Bear/Sleep Over party .. this will be a perfect recipe to try with the 3 year old.
I’ll be making these this weekend! Thanks for the recipe. Keep ’em coming…
Wow, that does look/sound delicious…and easy too, which basically is my criteria! Must try this one…thanks for sharing.
Hmmm I’ve got lots of Rice Krispies just begging to be used up. PERFECT. They look yummy. Thanks! (I think. hehe)
Great Christmas gifts for the neighbors!! I wonder how it would taste with a spice cake mix? The lemon cake mix sounds divine!!! This would be the perfect dessert to serve with those BBQ Cupcakes, dontchaknow….
Oh, and a lemony drizzley glaze on them?????? YUM!
Those sound really freaking fabulous! When I was little I would eat BUNCHES of that yellow batter…
Oh total yumminess. It’s bad when you feel like you’ll gain weight just looking at them.
Who cares!
I’m going to make these soon!
It sounds so good that even though my printer is out of one color of ink, and will not print at all – I am writing it down! With my hand! Like old-school! Ha! I hope they are worth it!
“Give them away to neighbors so you don’t gain 12 pounds.”
Yeah right, like that’s gonna happen.
Thanks for sharing!
Those look really, really good! I have baked goods on my blog today too:-)
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Yellow cake. Hubby thinks I’m nutty but Yellow cake is my favorite. I’m so trying these this weekend.
And….to whoever suggested the spice cake mix? Two words….YUM OOOO
Nuff said.
Thanks for posting this – I’m going to make them to take to our small group on Sunday. They look great, and super-easy!
Cake mix cookies are sooo good and very easy! My favorite is Harvest Walnut Cookies, a recipe by Sandra Lee from Semi-Homemade. They are delicious! Her recipe calls for vanilla cake mix and devil’s food cake mix, but I usually just go with the vanilla. I think you’d love ’em!
Right in time for the holidays! I’m in trouble! Yum! 🙂
Yum. Oh.
Those look so good.
Must. not. look…
Am. weak…
Diet. Failing. Fast!
Those look soosoo goooodddd!!! Just wish they were on my diet. Come to think of it…what IS on my diet?? Not.those.cookies!!!
Mmmmm…those look so good. And they call for ingredients that are easy to keep on hand. You know, for days when I haven’t had my daily butter allowance.
I was just looking through my baking supplies and wondering what in the world I was going to do with all the yellow cake mixes I have. Thanks!
Yet another Shannon recipe to obsess over. A long time ago, you shared a recipe for coffee cake made with pudding (you like your pudding, I can tell) and it is THE BEST coffee cake, evah.
I’ll be making these. Of course.
saved and put on word document for the recipe folder!! looks FABULOUS, and seems like it would be a great addition to christmas gifts.
thanks!
I am giving this recipe to my daughter to make.
I am so tired of Wookie Cookies from the Star Wars cookbook!
Perfect timing. I need a cookie fix.
I am totally making these for my son’s Cubbie’s group for Awana. They have a no chocolate rule but the kids want something sweet. This is perfect!
Whippersnappers…1 box cake mix, one egg, 8 oz. Cool whip. Mix together, roll into little balls, dip in powdered sugar, and bake at 350 for about 8 minutes.
Your kids will never be the same. Chocolate is my favorite, but lemon is the original.
They’re so good, my daughter learned how to say “cookie” (“guuuky”) just to ask for more!
Oh! Those look SO terribly yummy, and I think I might just have all the ingredients in the house! This is going to be a good night…and a bad one.
Thanks for the recipe!
Sometimes I just slice up pats of butter and eat that.
I made them! Didn’t have rice crispies so I used cocoa puffs. Crunched ’em up a little. Worked well!
Oh man, I just made these and they are so yummy! Being 35 weeks pregnant I really didn’t need them, but who cares! Yum!
Right now I am about to lick the computer… As I read all the comments I am drooling, ignoring my fighting children and wondering what concoction I can come up with that resembles that recipe since I know I have no rice crispies or yellow cake mix.
I better go figure it out before I eat the first screaming child that comes close enough for me to grab
Chocolate cake mix and Kix cereal. Uh- not so good… not so bad I guess either since we are eating them right now… But the Kix just gets chewy. However in a pinch, as desperate as I am to eat anything with sugar- IT WILL DO!
Oh, I love these, too, and they are easy enough my girls can bake them . . . and will this weekend, I think. : )
Yummie! Another great recipe to try! Thanks:)
Simple…..that is my kind of cookie! I need a simple cookie to make in my fast paced world!
Thanks 🙂
You must have known that church is having a bake sale next weekend. Thank you! This helps out a whole lot!
Honestly … does it get ANY easier? You rock!
These look so good I am licking the computer screen. Well, not really. I think I’ll whip up a batch for the Littles at The Schell Cafe and see what they think. Thanks for the recipe.
Oh, my gosh. Those look….just….okay I’m making them right now.
Great! I have a sad little box of rice krispies in the pantry with just about one cup left.
And thanks for the tip about the Kix…I was gonna try them too!
Yay. Another use for a cake mix when you don’t have frosting…I NEVER seem to have frosting. Will have to try!
Thanks for the recipe. I already chased my Lean Cuisine with half a pizza, what’s a few little cookies?
Adding ingredients to the grocery list RIGHT NOW! Yum!!!
Looking forward to making these. I bought everything tonight and will make them with my son tomorrow. He’s 2 and loves to help in the kitchen.
Oh, my WORD those look good!
OK, I made these today – and I’m definitely going to make them again!! Very yummy, and certainly the easiest cookies I’ve ever made. Thank you so much for sharing the recipe!
I just made these using EnerG Egg replacer to replace the egg and Earth Balance to replace the butter. (we are milk-free, egg free due to severe food allergy in one of my children).
These cookies are SO good!!! Oh my…they just came out of the oven and I’ve already had 3!!! Yikes! Off to make a plate of cookies for the neighbors! LOL
Um, SO DELICIOUS! I hope you don’t mind, they were so good I linked to them here- http://web.me.com/everychapter/Everychapter/Home/Home.html Thanks for the recipe!
Made them and Ate them…but not all by myself of course:) Thanks.
Alright…I’m holding you personally responsible for this.
Ok I just happen to be revamping my recipe box. So keep those recipes comming:)
I made these and the flavor is amazing. My only problem is that the rice krispies turned into little chewy lumps in the cookie. Could this be because I used generic rice krispies or did I mix it up wrong?
