Ingredients
  

  • 1 box (15.25 oz) white or yellow cake mix
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar for rolling (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment.
  2. Stir together cake mix, eggs, and oil until a thick dough forms.
  3. Scoop dough into 1 1/2 tablespoon balls and roll in sugar if desired.
  4. Place 2 inches apart on the sheet and bake for 8 to 10 minutes until edges are set.
  5. Let cookies rest on the hot sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

Notes

The dough can be made ahead and chilled for up to a day, but if it gets too firm let it sit at room temperature for a while before scooping. These taste even softer the next day as the moisture evens out.
