Description

Colorful and chewy cookies made easily with cake mix, perfect for a quick treat.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box rainbow bit or confetti cake mix (15.25 oz)
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1/3 cup neutral oil (like canola or vegetable)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional mix-ins: 1/2 cup white chocolate chips or extra rainbow sprinkles
  • A pinch of salt (if cake mix is very sweet)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, stir together the cake mix, eggs, oil, and vanilla until just combined. The batter should be thick and scoopable.
  3. If using, gently fold in the chips or sprinkles.
  4. Scoop the dough with a 1.5 tablespoon cookie scoop or rounded tablespoon, roll lightly into balls, and place 2 inches apart on the baking sheets.
  5. For extra soft cookies, chill the dough in the fridge for 10 minutes.
  6. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, pulling them out when edges appear set and centers slightly soft.
  7. Let cookies rest on the baking sheet for 2 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Optional: Drizzle with melted white chocolate and top with extra sprinkles.

Notes

Chilling dough improves the cookie shape; avoid overbaking for best texture.
