Lofthouse Cookies - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    COOKIES
    1 (19 ounce) box French vanilla cake mix
    1/3 cup vegetable oil
    2 eggs
    FROSTING
    1 cup unsalted butter, softened
    6 -8 cups powdered sugar
    1/2 cup milk
    2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Preparation
    COOKIES: Preheat oven to 350*. Blend, cake mix, eggs, and oil until moistened. Roll into 1\" balls. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten with a glass (but not too much, you want them to be 'fluffy').
    Bake for 6-8 minutes. Cool for 1 minute on pan before moving to a cooling rack.
    FROSTING: Place butter in a large bowl. Add 4 cups sugar and then milk and vanilla. Beat on medium speed until smooth and creamy, approx 3-5 minutes. Gradually add remaining sugar, 1 cup at a time beating well after each time, about 2 minutes, until the icing is thick enough to spread. Add food coloring if you'd like.
    While the cookies are still a little warm, spread on some buttercream frosting. Allow the frosting to set up before storing.
