Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 box of cake mix (any flavor, approximately 15.25 oz)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, and vegetable oil. Stir well until all ingredients are fully incorporated and the dough forms a thick, uniform consistency.
  2. Shape the Cookies: Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto an ungreased baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  3. Bake the Cookies: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are set and slightly golden. The centers should be soft.
  4. Cool the Cookies: 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.

Notes

  • You can customize the cookies by choosing different cake mix flavors such as chocolate, yellow, or red velvet.
  • Optional mix-ins such as chocolate chips, nuts, or sprinkles can be added to the dough for extra texture and flavor.
  • For softer cookies, slightly underbake and allow to cool on the baking sheet.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
