Ingredients You’ll Need:
- 1 box Vanilla Cake Mix – The shortcut ingredient that gives these cookies their sweet vanilla flavor while creating a soft, fluffy texture with minimal effort.
- 2 Eggs – Helps bind the dough together and contributes to the cookies soft, chewy consistency.
- 1/2 cup Oil – Adds moisture and richness, ensuring the cookies stay tender and soft for days after baking.
- Christmas Sprinkles – Brings festive color and holiday cheer to every cookie.
How to Make Christmas Cake Mix Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Combine 1 box of vanilla cake mix, 2 eggs, and 1/2 cup oil and mix well.
- Scoop 1 inch balls and roll into Christmas sprinkles, covering all sides of the dough and place onto the prepared pan.
- Bake for 10 minutes.
My Best Tips:
- Don’t Over Bake – Remove cookies from the oven when the centers still look slightly soft. They will continue to set as they cool, giving you that perfectly soft and chewy texture.
- Use a Cookie Scoop for Uniform Cookies – This ensures that all the cookies bake evenly and finish at the same time.
- Avoid Overcrowding the Baking Sheet – Leave enough space between dough balls to allow the cookies to spread without touching.
- Shape the Cookies While Warm – For perfectly round bakery style cookies, gently use a large round cutter or spatula to shape them immediately after baking.
