There's something undeniably delightful about cookies that evoke sweet memories, and Cake Mix Cookies are the perfect solution for anyone craving a quick, delicious treat. These cookies combine the convenience of cake mix with delightful creativity, allowing for endless flavor combinations and variations.
Ingredients
Scale:
1 box (15.25 oz) of cake mix (your favorite flavor, such as chocolate or funfetti)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour (optional, for added texture)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1 cup chocolate chips (optional)
1/2 cup nuts (e.g., walnuts or pecans, optional)
1/2 cup sprinkles (optional, for funfetti cookies)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix and optional all-purpose flour. Whisk them together to ensure even distribution.
Add the vegetable oil and eggs into the dry mixture. Mix until a thick dough forms. If you are adding chocolate chips, nuts, or sprinkles, fold them into the dough now.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
