How to make cookies out of cake mix
To make these funfetti cake cookies, start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees.
Add cake mix, eggs, oil to a large bowl and mix to combine.
Add the sprinkles and mix until the ingredients are incorporated.
Drop rounded tablespoons of the cake batter cookies dough a few inches apart on a parchment lined baking sheet.
Bake the cake box cookies for 10-12 minutes in a 350 degree oven. The cookies will be soft when they come out of the oven, but as they cool, they will become more firm.
