    Why this cookie recipe works

    • Just 4 ingredients!
    • Start to finish in 15 minutes.
    • Box cake mix makes this so easy. No measuring flour and sugar or making a big mess.

    Ingredients

    Cake mix is my favorite short cut for soft and crinkly homemade cookies. Hey, they may use cake mix, but they were made in my home so they qualify. You can use any variety of cake mix and make delicious cookies in no time flat. These red velvet cookies from cake mix are even more yummy because of the addition of white chocolate chips.

    Frequently asked questions about this recipe

    Can I frost cookies made from red velvet cake mix?

    Sure! Like the classic red velvet cake, these cookies taste wonderful with cream cheese frosting.

    I don't have white chips. Can I use chocolate chips instead?

    Yes, you can. These taste just as good with chocolate chips.

    Can you make these cookies with chips?

    Yes you can. If you are not using chips I suggest sprinkling powdered sugar on the tops of the cookies when they have cooled.

    Do your kids love cooking?

    I have long been a proponent of cooking with kids. There are so many things kids learn helping out in the kitchen. Math, reading, chemistry and cooperation and more are used while following a recipe.
