Celebrating the Twin's 10th Birthday with Pillsbury's Funfetti Cake Mix

The boys turned 10 the other day, and since it was on a Thursday we decided to postpone the cake eating until the weekend when we could have everyone together to celebrate.
In my house, we all enjoy Pillsbury's Funfetti cake mix and Funfetti fudge frosting. I love Pillsbury products in general and use them all the time in my Pre-Culinary classes. My students love to make Funfetti cake cookies and I always share with them the recipe for "cake cookies" and explain how they can use the same recipe for any flavor of cake mix. As I type this the, cake is baking and the boys can't wait to have a slice of that yummy Funfetti cake!
In case you have never made cake cookies and would like to try the recipe, here it is:
