There is something frugal and fun from turning those affordable cake mixes into other dessert creations. It saves you loads of money over store-bought specialty baked items.

But it is really fun to scope the internet to find ideas for your own homemade versions of specialty baked items. Or in this case, semi-homemade.

Also, this uses a touch of orange essential oil (this is where I get my oils) or orange extract to flavor the cookies to make them into a creamsicle flavor – the orange combined with the white chocolate. It really does become like those orange creamsicle or dreamsicle bars in a cookie!

Think of all of the reasons and parties you could make this special treat?!? What a fun party in the mouth this would add.

Ingredients needed for Funfetti Orange Creamsicle Cookies with Orange Essential Oil:
