Method

My method yesterday for getting a group for a class to actually do some work and be productive was to make them cookies.  I guess some background information would be that it's a group of three guys and poor me.  Too much testosterone in the group.  Oh well.  We've had little projects all semester and a two page paper can take us up to 2 1/2 hours.  Ridiculous.  But they're all pretty fun so I guess that's okay.  But we have a final paper due next week.  5-7 pages.  I was pretty sure there was no way it was going to get done.  So I made cookies to bribe them into working. Cookies just boosted everyone's energy to browse the internet more! Oh well! It was a good time.  We got most of the paper done.  Hooray! 

This cookie recipe is one of my favorites.  Mainly because of how easy it is! I don't like to bake.  I'd rather cook most of the time.  So an easy recipe is always welcome. 

1 Box of Cake Mix
2 Eggs
1/3 Cup of Oil
1 Teaspoon of Peppermint Extract! 


Christmas cookies aren't Christmasy without frosting! Yeah for powdered sugar cookies!
I added peppermint extract to it as well as crushed candy canes. Yummm!



What kind of goodies are you making this holiday season?!
