Cake Mix Cookies
Description
The Cake Mix Cookies combine a white cake mix with eggs, oil, and vanilla extract to craft a smooth dough. Sprinkles mixed inside and coated on the outside give visual appeal and a slight crunch in spots. After shaping into tablespoon-sized balls and spacing on a prepared baking sheet, the cookies bake at 350°F for 8 to 10 minutes. They set and lightly brown without becoming crisp, maintaining the soft texture characteristic of cake-based cookies.
The brief bake time helps prevent drying out, resulting in a cookie that is tender but holds its form well. The recipe suggests adjusting cookie size and baking times if a different dimension is desired. Uniform dough ball size can be achieved using a cookie scoop or measuring spoon.
These cookies store well in an airtight container for up to three days, retaining softness and color. Their bright sprinkles make them visually appealing for festive occasions or quick treats.
Ingredients
- 15 1/4 ounce box white cake mix
- 2 egg
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup Sprinkles divided use
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a nonstick baking mat.
- In a large bowl, mix together the white cake mix, eggs, oil and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Stir in 1/4 cup of the sprinkles.
- Roll the dough into tablespoon sized balls.
- Pour the remaining 1/2 cup of sprinkles onto a plate. Roll the balls of dough around in the sprinkles to coat.
- Place the balls of dough 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. You will need to work in batches.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes or until cookies are set and lightly browned
- Cool, then remove from the baking sheet and repeat the baking process with the remaining dough. Serve immediately, or store in an air tight container for up to 3 days.
Notes
- Use a 15¼-ounce box of white cake mix for best results; smaller boxes may affect the texture.
- Adjust cookie size as desired, baking longer for larger cookies or less for smaller ones.
- Using a cookie scoop or measuring spoon helps produce evenly sized cookies for uniform baking.
