1 stick butter, at room temperture
1 egg

Confectioners sugar, for dusting
1: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2: In a large bowl with a stand mixer,cream the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Beat in egg. Then beat in vanilla extract. Beat in the cake mix. Cover and refrigerate for two hours to firm up so that you can roll the batter into balls. Roll the chilled batter into tablespoon sized balls and then roll them in confectioner's sugar. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet, two inches apart. Bake 12 minutes. The cookies will be soft and "gooey." Cool completly and sprinkle with more confectioners sugar, if desired.
