Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 box white cake mix (15.25 oz)

  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • Food coloring (pink, yellow, green, or your choice of pastel shades)

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar (for rolling)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven:
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Make the Dough:
    In a large bowl, mix the cake mix, oil, eggs, and vanilla until a dough forms.

  3. Color the Dough:
    Divide the dough into 3–4 small bowls. Add a few drops of different pastel food colorings to each and mix until evenly colored.

  4. Shape the Cookies:
    Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough, roll into a ball, then roll in powdered sugar until well coated.

  5. Bake:
    Place dough balls 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 9–11 minutes, or until the cookies are puffed and crinkled but still soft in the center.

  6. Cool:
    Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 2–3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

  • For extra festive cookies, sprinkle with pastel sanding sugar before baking.

  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.

 

  • You can freeze the dough balls (before rolling in powdered sugar) and bake them later.
