Ingredients

  • 1 box (15.25 ounces) cake mix (any flavor)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (for rolling)

Instructions

  • Prepare the Dough: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, and vegetable oil. Stir until a soft dough forms.
  • Shape the Cookies: Use a spoon or cookie scoop to form tablespoon-sized balls of dough. Roll each dough ball in powdered sugar until fully coated.
  • Arrange and Bake: Place dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are set and the tops have a crinkled appearance.
  • Cool: Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 2-3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For variations, try different cake mix flavors (chocolate, red velvet, lemon) or add-ins like chocolate chips or dried fruit.
  • Chilling the dough before shaping helps prevent excessive spreading during baking.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week, or freeze dough for future baking.
