Cookies Made With Cake Mix
Have you ever made cookies with cake mix? It’s such a smart baking hack! You need fewer ingredients and the cookies come out beautifully every time. Perfect for a beginning baker or baking with the kiddos. Plus these cookies have a subtle cake flavor–yum!
This recipe is pretty similar to typical cookie recipes, except that there are fewer ingredients. That’s because a box of cake mix contains many ingredients, such as flour and baking soda. You can make cookies out of any cake mix you love! This red velvet cake mix makes deliciously soft cookies with decadent white chocolate chips mixed in.

How To Make Red Velvet Cake Mix Cookies
Start by preheating the oven to 350 degrees and preparing two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Crack two eggs into a mixing bowl and whisk up. Then add remaining ingredients: cake mix, vegetable oil, and white chocolate chips. Stir it all up until combined.
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, place about 1/4 cup of batter into spots on the baking sheet, making sure that the piles of dough are a few inches away from each other.
Once both sheet are covered in cookies, use fingers to gently shape each dough “ball” into a round shape, as needed.
Bake for 12 minutes, then remove from oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
Cooking Tips
- Be sure to space the cookie dough balls a few inches away from each other on the baking sheet, as the cookies do spread a bit while baking
- You can use a whisk or fork for the eggs. Whichever is your preference.
- Make it your own! Try different toppings like chocolate chips, dried fruit, or nuts.
What Is The Difference Between Cookie Mix and Cake Mix?
Both cake and cookie mix contain flour, sugar, some version of fat (dairy), and usually a leavening agent. Cookie mixes typically make thicker batter, to help the cookies keep their shape during baking. Both can be used to make delicious cookies.
Which Is Better For Baking Cookies, Butter Or Oil?
Since oil is liquid at room temperature, baking with oil produces the most moist baked goods.
