In case you don’t already have this recipe, or forgot about it all together, here it is. These cake mix cookies are such an easy and delicious recipe to make with only three ingredients! Customize this recipe with your favorite flavor and mix-in’s. Great starter recipe for kids.
Ingredients:
- 1 (15.25-ounce) box cake mix
- 1/2 c melted butter (or oil if you don’t want to make the best cookies)
- 2 large eggs (1 egg for firmer cookies)
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper and set aside.
- In a large bowl, stir the cake mix, butter, and eggs until combined. If you have time, refrigerate the dough 15 to 20 minutes (it will make it a little easier to work with, since it is sticky).
- Using a medium scoop or spoon, scoop the dough onto the baking sheet.
- Top with additional toppings, if desired.
- Bake 9 to 11 minutes, or until the cookies are set. You don’t want them to brown.
- Let cool a couple minutes on the baking sheet and then transfer to a cooling rack.
- Store in a covered container up to 3 days
Notes:
To dip in chocolate: Once the cookies have cooled, melt chocolate and dip half the cookie into it. Lay cookies onto wax paper and add sprinkles, if desired.
Variations: You can use pretty much any flavor of cake mix to make these cookies. Feel free to add in your favorite mix-ins or dip in chocolate.
