Ingredients

1 box Boxed cake mix (any flavor)
2 Eggs
0.5 cup Vegetable oil
1 cup Optional mix-ins (e.g., chocolate chips, sprinkles, nuts, etc.)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the boxed cake mix, eggs, and vegetable oil. Stir until the ingredients are well incorporated and form a dough.

Step 3

If using optional mix-ins like chocolate chips, sprinkles, or nuts, gently fold them into the dough.

Step 4

Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers are still soft.

Step 6

Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 2 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 7

Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
