EASY CAKE MIX COOKIES
INGREDIENTS (Makes 20–24 cookies)
-
1 box cake mix (any flavor: chocolate, vanilla, lemon, red velvet, etc.)
-
2 large eggs
-
1/3 cup vegetable oil (or melted butter for richer cookies)
Optional Mix-Ins (choose 1–2):
-
1 cup chocolate chips
-
½ cup sprinkles
-
1 cup M&M’s
-
½ cup chopped nuts
-
½ cup white chocolate chips
-
Dried fruit (cranberries, cherries, etc.)
🍪 INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preheat
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix the dough
In a bowl, combine:
-
Cake mix
-
Eggs
-
Oil
Stir until a thick dough forms.
(If adding chocolate chips or mix-ins, fold them in now.)
3. Scoop
Use a spoon or cookie scoop to drop 1–2 tbsp sized dough balls onto the baking sheet, spaced about 2 inches apart.
4. Bake
Bake 9–12 minutes, depending on cookie size.
-
Edges should be set
-
Centers will look soft — they firm up as they cool
Do NOT overbake (the secret to soft cookies!).
5. Cool
Let cookies cool on the pan for 3–5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
