However, I decided that they needed to be made from scratch. Because I don't always have cake mix in my pantry…but the basic staples of butter, sugar, flour, cream cheese are always in my kitchen. Although my Ooey Gooey Butter Cake recipe is made with cake mix, I wanted to try a from-scratch version for the cookies.
