Ingredients
  

  • 1 15.25 oz box cake mix, any flavor
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • Optional: 1 cup mix-ins chocolate chips, nuts, candy pieces, sprinkles, dried fruit, coconut flakes

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Combine cake mix, eggs, and oil in a bowl and mix until a smooth dough forms.
  3. Fold in desired mix-ins or toppings.
  4. Scoop 2-tablespoon portions of dough onto prepared sheets, spacing 2 inches apart.
  5. Bake 9–11 minutes until edges are set but centers look slightly soft.
  6. Cool on baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

For thicker cookies, chill dough 15–30 minutes before baking. Slight underbaking ensures soft, chewy results.
