Perfect for busy bakers, this 3-ingredient recipe transforms your favorite boxed cake mix into irresistibly delicious cookies in just 20 minutes. With a rich, tender texture and endless flavor possibilities, these cookies come together effortlessly using cake mix, eggs, and vegetable oil. Add a personal touch with optional mix-ins like chocolate chips, sprinkles, or nuts to make them truly your own. Ideal for last-minute dessert cravings or a quick treat for any occasion, these cookies are a crowd-pleasing delight that you’ll want to bake again and again.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, and vegetable oil. Stir until well blended and a thick dough forms.
If using optional mix-ins, gently fold them into the batter until evenly distributed.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are slightly cracked. Do not overbake, as the cookies will continue to firm up as they cool.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your easy homemade cookies, or store them in an airtight container for up to a week.
