These Christmas Cake Mix Cookies are soft, chewy and wonderfully festive with bright red, green and white sprinkles tucked into every bite.

Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box white cake mix, 15.25 ounce
- 1 half cup canola or vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 half teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons each red, white and green sprinkles, plus more for topping
Instructions
- In a large bowl mix together the cake mix, oil, eggs and vanilla until the mixture becomes completely smooth.
- Stir in the red, white and green sprinkles so the colors are evenly distributed.
- Place the bowl of dough in the refrigerator and chill for thirty minutes.
- About ten minutes before the dough is ready, preheat the oven to three hundred fifty degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Scoop the chilled dough into balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Add a little more of each sprinkle color to the top of every dough ball.
- Bake for eight to ten minutes or until the bottoms turn lightly golden.
- Let the cookies cool on a rack and serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- Do not skip chilling because it helps the cookies keep their shape.
- Pull the cookies out while the centers still look soft since they continue baking as they cool.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to four days or freeze for up to two months.
