Ingredients

1 box cake mix (dry ingredients only)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1/2 cup mix ins

Instructions

In a bowl mix together the cake mix, vegetable oil and eggs. Then gently fold in the mix ins. The cookies pictured above are made from white cake mix and I used the colorful star sprinkles as the mix in.
Chill in the fridge for about 30 minutes to 1 hour (or upto 4 days). This is an optional step, but I've noticed that the chilled cookie dough is easier to scoop out and also it allows the cookies to spread less while baking.
Once ready to bake the cookies, preheat the oven to 350 F and line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper. Note: the silicone baking mat helps in less spreading of the cookies.
Scoop out the cookie dough and bake for about 10-12 minutes. The cookies are ready to be taken out of the oven when the edges are slightly firm but the middle is still soft and squishy.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 10-15 minutes before removing them to a cooling rack.
Cake mix cookies can be stored up to 1 week in an airtight container.
