Delicious Cake Cookies... aka "Jacob's Favorite Cookies"

So my mom made these cookies for us right after I had Isabelle and we all just fell in love with them, they are amazing!  I mean, unreal!  They kind of taste like a healthy donut, I say healthy because they aren't deep fried ;).  Jacob loves them so my mom and I made them for his birthday and they are super easy so I had to share the recipe...

Combine:
1 8 oz cream cheese (I use reduced fat Neufchatel)
1 stick of butter
1 egg
1 t vanilla
Add to 1 box of Butter Golden Cake mix 

Mix about 1 1/2 C of powdered sugar and 1 T cinnamon or cinnamon sugar (this varies depending on how you want them to taste, so you can add more cinnamon if you want)
Roll the dough into balls and roll them into the powdered sugar mix
Bake on a greased cookie sheet at 350 degrees for 12 minutes or longer depending on your oven, just watch them
Let them cool for about 10 mins and then we put the tops back into the powdered sugar and cinnamon mix to make them even tastier :)
It's kind of a fly by the seat of your pants recipe so let me know if you have any questions!
ENJOY!
