Make soft and chewy red velvet cookies fast using boxed cake mix. This simple recipe requires only four ingredients and creates beautiful, festive crinkle cookies perfect for holidays or Valentine’s Day.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box (15.25 ounces) red velvet cake mix
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (for rolling)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the entire box of red velvet cake mix, vegetable oil, and eggs. Mix with a spoon or electric mixer until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.
  3. Place the powdered sugar in a shallow dish.
  4. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough and roll each portion into a smooth ball.
  5. Roll each dough ball thoroughly in the powdered sugar until completely coated.
  6. Place the coated dough balls about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  7. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. The edges should be set, but the centers will still look slightly soft.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. The crinkle effect develops as they cool.

Notes

  • For an extra bakery-style look, you can add 1/2 cup of white chocolate chips to the dough mixture.
  • If you prefer a thicker cookie, you can chill the dough for 30 minutes before rolling, though chilling is not required for this quick recipe.
  • These cookies look fantastic on any Christmas cookie platter or Valentine’s Day dessert spread.
