Ingredients

  • 15.25 ounce white cake mix
  • 2 eggs , room temperature
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 Tablespooon cornstarch

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil and vanilla. Using a spatula or wooden spoon, stir until combined.
  • Place powdered sugar and cornstarch into a shallow bowl, stir to combine.
  • Scoop dough into balls using a 1 1/2 Tablespoons cookie scoop. Roll each ball into the powdered sugar mixture (I like to coat twice).
  • Place each cookie ball onto prepared baking sheets spacing at least 2"-3" inches part.
  • Bake 8-10 minutes until lightly golden on the bottom (mine took 8 minutes).
  • Cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

You can use any cake mix you like to change the flavor. 
Use different extract like lemon, mint or orange. 
Store up to 5 days in an airtight container away from sunlight. Freeze baked cookies without powdered sugar coating for 2 months. Thaw then sprinkle with sugar before serving.
