Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix
- 0.5 cup (melted) unsalted butter
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup optional mix-ins (chocolate chips, sprinkles, nuts, etc.)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Stir until the ingredients are fully incorporated and a dough forms.
If using optional mix-ins like chocolate chips, sprinkles, or chopped nuts, gently fold them into the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8–10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Be careful not to overbake; the cookies should remain soft.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 2 minutes. Then transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your homemade yellow cake mix cookies. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
