Easy Cake Mix Cookies- Sugar Cookies image

I frequently make these cookies for work pitch-ins & family get-togethers. They are always a big hit! I was given the basic recipe several years ago by a lady who showed up at my garage sale-and she wrote it down during our conversation about baking. I have perfected different varieties over the years. Please see my other recipes for how to make the following versions of this cookie: chocolate-chocolate chip, chocolate chip, & lemon cookies. This is a really versatile recipe base-experiment!!

Time 13m

Yield 24-36 cookies, 24-36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (18 ounce) box yellow cake mix (or buttercream flavor if you can find it)
2 eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 -4 tablespoons raw sugar (plus extra for sprinkling on top)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Stir ingredients in medium mixing bowl until blended (best to do right before you are ready to bake them- they flatten out more if you let the batter set).
  • Spoon onto 2 un-greased cookie sheets (allow some space in between, they spread...a melon baller works great for this step). Sprinkle tops with raw sugar.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes (depends on which cake mix you use & the oven -- I start looking at them through the glass around 6.5 minutes -- they will get a dull/cracked appearance on top when done).
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the pan, or wait 1-2 minutes before moving to cooling racks. Cookies should be soft & chewy.
