Rudolphs Nose Christmas Cookies
Are you looking for an easy Christmas cookie recipe?
Look no further because these Rudolph’s Nose Christmas cookies are quick, easy, and delicious. They are my go-to when making Christmas cookies with my nieces.
My friend Stephanie brought these over during the holidays once and we all loved them. When I asked her for the recipe, I couldn’t believe how easy they were to make. I love cake box recipes because they are always easy recipes to make.

Rudolph’s Nose Christmas Cookies
Ingredients:
1 box (18.25 oz) Devil’s food cake mix
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
1 egg
Vanilla frosting (about 1/2 tub per batch)
Maraschino cherries (no stems)

Directions:
Mix the first four ingredients into a stiff dough. (Dough dries quickly and then is hard to roll–add a little oil to help with the dry-out factor, if needed.
Roll the dough into 1-inch balls. Press an indentation into a ball (with the round end of a wooden spoon or something like that).
Place 2 inches apart on a greased baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-11 minutes. If dough is puffed, use the end of a wooden spoon to recreate indentation.
Cool for one minute. Remove from pan and continue to cool. Spread frosting into the indention (or apply with star-tipped pastry bag). Top with a cherry.
