Description

Delightfully soft and fluffy Cool Whip Cookies made with cake mix, these treats are easy to prepare and perfect for any occasion. With a sweet powdered sugar coating and a tender crumb, they bake up quickly for a simple yet impressive dessert.


Ingredients

Scale

Cookies

  • 1 box (15.25 oz) cake mix (any flavor)
  • 1 (8 oz) tub Cool Whip, thawed
  • 1 large egg

For Rolling

  • ½ cup powdered sugar


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, thawed Cool Whip, and egg. Stir until the dough is completely mixed and sticky in texture.
  3. Coat Dough Balls: Pour powdered sugar into a small bowl. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll each into a ball, then coat thoroughly in the powdered sugar to create a sweet crust.
  4. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the coated dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow room for spreading.
  5. Bake Cookies: Bake for 10–12 minutes or until the cookies are set and edges begin to turn lightly golden, indicating they are done.
  6. Cool Cookies: Let the cookies cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely, ensuring they maintain their shape and texture.

Notes

  • Use any flavor of cake mix to customize the cookie flavor to your preference.
  • Make sure the Cool Whip is fully thawed for easier mixing.
  • Do not overbake to keep the cookies soft and moist.
  • Cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • Optional: Add chocolate chips or nuts to the dough for extra texture and flavor.
