Ingredients
1 (15.25-ounce) box cake mix (any flavor)
1/2 scant cup vegetable oil or 7 tablespoons melted butter
2 large eggs
Optional: Chocolate chips, M&M’s, Rolo’s, nuts, sprinkles, etc.
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- In a large bowl, mix together the cake mix, oil, and eggs until smooth. Refrigerate the dough for 15–20 minutes if time allows.
- Using a cookie scoop or spoon, place dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Add optional mix-ins if desired.
- Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, or until cookies are set but not browned.
- Allow cookies to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
Notes
- Refrigerating the dough helps reduce stickiness and makes it easier to handle.
- Do not overbake; cookies should remain soft and not browned.
- Great with mix-ins like white chocolate chips, M&M’s, or Rolos.
- Dip in melted chocolate and decorate with sprinkles for added flair.
- Use any cake mix flavor for endless cookie variations.
