Ingredients
Scale
1 box cake mix (any flavor, about 15.25 oz)
1 cup Cool Whip, thawed
1 large egg
3/4 cup powdered sugar (for rolling)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine the dry cake mix, thawed Cool Whip, and the egg. Mix these ingredients until they form a soft dough. Do not overmix.
Pour the powdered sugar onto a shallow plate.
Scoop the dough into balls, about 1 tablespoon each. Roll each dough ball completely in the powdered sugar until fully coated. This creates the crinkle cookie look.
Place the coated dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between them.
Bake for 9 to 12 minutes. The cookies will look soft when you remove them.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before moving them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
You can use any flavor of cake mix for different cookie results, like chocolate, vanilla, or lemon.
For extra fluffy cookies, ensure your Cool Whip is fully thawed but still cold.
If you want a slightly chewier cookie, bake closer to the 9-minute mark.
