Anna’s Spice Cookies made from a cake mix

Anna Gugler made these cookies for a gathering at the Gugler farm. Barry managed to eat most of them. She delivered another batch and he took the advice she added to her recipe card . . . “After they have cooled, eat as many as you can hold.”

Chock-full of spices, these flavorful cookies are quick to mix up and bake.
