You can make these incredibly soft, fluffy Cool Whip Cookies using just three simple ingredients. They are perfect for quick baking, bake sales, or last-minute sweet cravings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box (15.25 oz) white or yellow cake mix
  • 1 tub (8 oz) frozen whipped topping (Cool Whip), thawed
  • 1 large egg
  • Powdered sugar, for rolling (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the entire box of dry cake mix, the thawed whipped topping, and the egg. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  3. If using, place powdered sugar in a shallow dish.
  4. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough and roll them into balls. Roll each ball in the powdered sugar until fully coated.
  5. Place the dough balls about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  6. Bake for 9 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers remain soft.
  7. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • You can use any flavor of cake mix you like for variety, such as chocolate or strawberry.
  • For a crinkle cookie look, roll the dough balls generously in powdered sugar before baking.
  • These cookies are best eaten within 3 days for the softest texture.
