Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 box (15.25 oz) Boxed cake mix (any flavor)
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
- 1 cup Optional mix-ins (e.g., chocolate chips, sprinkles, nuts, etc.)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the boxed cake mix, eggs, and vegetable oil. Stir until the mixture forms a smooth dough.
If desired, fold in your choice of mix-ins, such as chocolate chips, sprinkles, or nuts.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops appear slightly crackled. The centers may look underbaked but will set as they cool.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your delicious cake mix cookies! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
