Ingredients
Scale
Cookie Dough
- 1 box white cake mix (about 15.25 oz)
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
Add-ins
- 1/2 cup Fruity Pebbles cereal
- 1/4 cup sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking the cookies at the perfect temperature.
- Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the white cake mix, vegetable oil, and eggs. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and fully combined without any dry patches.
- Fold in the Add-ins: Gently fold in the Fruity Pebbles cereal and sprinkles, if using, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough while maintaining as much of the cereal’s crunch as possible.
- Portion the Dough: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough and place them about 2 inches apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to allow space for spreading.
- Bake the Cookies: Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges of the cookies begin to turn a light golden brown, indicating they are perfectly baked but still soft inside.
- Cool the Cookies: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes to set, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving or storing.
Notes
- For extra color and fun, add sprinkles but this is optional.
- Do not overbake to keep cookies soft and chewy.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- To make the cookies gluten-free, use a gluten-free cake mix.
