About this recipe
The cookies are soft and buttery, with a lightly crisp edge from the quick bake. Because the batter is simple—just cake mix, eggs, and oil—you can whip them up in minutes and bake them straight onto a cookie sheet. They hold their shape well and are great plain or dusted with powdered sugar.
Serve them warm from the oven with a glass of milk, or store in an airtight container for several days. They’re a convenient way to turn a cake mix into a crowd‑pleasing cookie for any occasion.
