They used colored sparking sugars, colored pearlized sugars, colored sanding sugars, colored pearlized jimmies, candy cane sprinkles, colored sugar crystals, pearlized sugar pearls, edible confetti snowflakes, glitter crystals, nonpareils and dragees to decorate the cookes. It was also noted they used no taste paste food coloring by Wilton and edible silver spray on the cookies.

CHOCOLATE GOOEY BUTTER COOKIES - PAULA DEEN



Chocolate Gooey Butter Cookies - Paula Deen image

This recipe was on Paula's Food TV show. They are to die for! I made these because my partner will not eat anything with cream cheese in it. I thought I would actually have cookies to eat the next day. I was so wrong. I made a double batch and only had 3 cookies in all. I did not find these to be Gooey. More delicate and cake like. Be sure not to over bake. *Prep time includes 2 hour chilling time. *NOTE - On her show she did add oil...I don't know the amt. I added no oil the 4 times I have made these and I don't feel its needed...My hips agree :) UPDATE: I have also used FF Cream Cheese with good results. Any flavor cake mix works well! Please also note that the directions do state that dough will be very stiff. I use my stand mixer with no problems. Please use caution if using a hand mixer.
