Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, whisked eggs, and melted butter. Mix until all the ingredients are fully incorporated. Note that the dough will be thick.
Using a medium-sized cookie scoop or a heaping tablespoon, scoop the dough onto a parchment-lined cookie sheet.
Bake the cookies for 7-8 minutes, or until they are lightly golden brown. Once baked, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool on the cookie sheet for 4-5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack. Repeat this process until all of the dough is used up.
While the cookies are cooling, prepare the glaze. In a small saucepan, combine the butter, granulated sugar, water, and vanilla extract. Cook over medium-low heat until the sugar is fully dissolved, stirring constantly with a whisk. This should take about 4 minutes.
Once the glaze is ready, spoon a teaspoon of it over each cookie, spreading it out evenly if necessary.
Allow the glaze to set, then sprinkle the cookies with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.
Store your Kentucky Butter Cake Cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
