Instructions
- Step 1: Choosing the Right Cake Mix
- The flavor of your cake mix determines the taste of your cookies. Some popular options include chocolate, vanilla, red velvet, lemon, and funfetti.
- Step 2: Mixing the Dough
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, and vegetable oil.
- Stir until the ingredients are fully incorporated, forming a thick dough.
- If using mix-ins like chocolate chips or nuts, fold them in at this stage.
- Step 3: Shaping and Baking the Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Use a cookie scoop or spoon to portion out the dough into small balls, placing them 2 inches apart.
- Gently flatten the dough balls with your fingers or the back of a spoon if desired.
- Step 4: Baking and Cooling
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are slightly cracked.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
