Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box (15.25 oz) cake mix (any flavor)
- 1 cup frozen whipped topping (Cool Whip), thawed
- 1 large egg
- Powdered sugar, for rolling (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, combine the thawed whipped topping and the egg. Mix until just combined.
- Add the dry cake mix to the bowl. Stir the mixture until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.
- If using, place powdered sugar in a shallow dish.
- Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough and roll them into balls. Roll each ball in the powdered sugar until coated.
- Place the dough balls about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. You can gently flatten them slightly if you prefer a less puffy cookie.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. The edges should be set, but the centers will still look soft.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before moving them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Use any flavor of cake mix you like; chocolate, yellow, or spice cake mix work well for different results.
- For crinkle cookies, roll the dough balls generously in powdered sugar before baking.
- These cookies freeze well once cooled. Store them in an airtight container.
