I scored a box of almond poppyseed muffin mix at the shops for 69 cents. The problem was, no one felt like having muffins. We did, however, really want some cookies. With a few tweaks to the mix, we had the most awesome chewy sugar cookies. I made a simple glaze for the tops because my family loves a bit of icing.
This recipe uses half a box of 17 ounce mix (I saved the other half for when we do actually want muffins). You can use the whole box and double the recipe easily if you'd like 48 cookies. Try this with any type of muffin mix. Get creative!

I love your creativity here with a muffin mix. I've made cookies from cake mixes before so this is right up my ally. I especially like the last tip about leaving them in the oven for a crisper cookie. Looks awesome and I am going to do this!
Excellent, Elaine! Let us know what mix you use and how they turn out! :)
Hi ThriftyFun! Could you please move the "1/2 cup powdered sugar" in the ingredients down to the icing segment? Thank you! :)
Should be fixed now. :)
