Preparation Steps

• Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and cream cheese until smooth.
• Beat in the vanilla extract and almond extract.
• Add the dry yellow cake mix to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. The dough will be thick and slightly sticky.
• In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs.
• Gradually add the beaten eggs to the dough, mixing until fully incorporated.
• Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between cookies.
• Bake for 9-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are still soft and gooey.
• Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Once cooled, generously dust the cookies with powdered sugar.
