Description
Cool Whip Cookies are soft, crinkle-style cookies made with just cake mix, whipped topping, and an egg. Rolled in powdered sugar before baking, they’re quick, versatile, and perfect for effortless baking.
Ingredients
- 1 box (15.25 oz) cake mix (any flavor: chocolate, lemon, strawberry, etc.)
- 8 oz Cool Whip, thawed
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup powdered sugar (for rolling)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, combine cake mix, Cool Whip, and egg. Stir until well blended; dough will be sticky.
- Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll into balls.
- Coat each ball thoroughly in powdered sugar.
- Place on prepared baking sheet, leaving space between cookies.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes, until edges are set and tops are crackled.
- Cool on baking sheet for 2–3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
- No chilling is required; bake immediately after mixing.
- Lightly grease hands or use a cookie scoop to handle sticky dough.
- Use any cake mix flavor for variety, including gluten-free mixes.
- Mix-ins like chocolate chips or nuts can be added to the dough.
