Yield: 15-20 servings
Ingredients
·
1
box chocolate cake mix (I like Dark Chocolate Fudge)
·
1/3
cup water
·
1/2
cup vegetable oil
·
3
large eggs
·
Frosting:
·
12
tablespoons salted butter, softened
·
4
ounces cream cheese, softened
·
1/3
cup sliced frozen strawberries in sugar, thawed and pureed
·
4
cups powdered sugar
·
Ganache:
·
1/2
cup semisweet chocolate chips
·
1/3
cup heavy cream
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 400.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix cake mix, eggs,
water and oil in a large mixing bowl on medium speed until fully combined. Drop
batter using a small cookie scoop on prepared baking sheet and bake for about
6-8 minutes or until tops spring back when lightly touched. Remove to a wire
baking sheet to cool. Meanwhile, prepare the frosting.
3. In the bowl of your
mixer, beat butter and cream cheese on medium speed until smooth. Add the
strawberry puree and beat on medium low until mixed. Add powdered sugar and
beat on low until just barely mixed in. Increase mixer speed to high and beat
for one minute. If frosting is too thin, add another 1/2 cup of powdered sugar
to get desired consistency.
4. Frost half of the
cookies, flat side up. Prepare ganache.
5. In a small
microwave-safe bowl, heat chocolate chips and heavy cream, stopping ever 20
seconds to stir until smooth. Let cool, then spoon over frosting. Top each
frosted cookie with another cookie.
