Earlier this week I warned you that I was busy in the kitchen over the past weekend – I’ve been posting recipes like a mad-woman with spring fever. Guilty!
Funfetti Cake Mix Cookies is my favourite of all the treats that I made recently, I just love the spring ‘Eastery’ look and the moist cake-like taste. Seriously, this is one amazing cookie, guys!
This recipe calls for a cake-mix, delighting those that don’t have the time nor care for making a cookie from scratch. With just a few simple ingredients, making Funfetti Cake Mix Cookies is the definition of simple. I even made a very short video highlighting just how easy it is.
I made Funfetti Cake Mix Cookies for the sole purpose of welcoming a nice spring-like day, and for my readers that need an Eater-themed dessert – yet truthfully, it’s a cookie that can totally be made at any point in time and for any occasion. Even if it’s simply celebrating the fact that it’s Friday.
I seriously cannot get enough of these cookie, so make and enjoy time and again – this is sure to become a favourite of yours as it is mine!
- 1 box Confetti Cake Mix
- 1/3 Cup Oil
- 2 Eggs
- 3-4 tbps Sprinkles {of choosing}
- 1 - 1/3 cup M&Ms
-
Preheat oven at 350º F.
-
In a large bowl, add dry cake mix, oil and eggs.
-
Stir with a spoon until combined.
-
Add the sprinkles to the cake batter and gently mix.
-
Add M&M's and gently mix.
-
Shape dough into 1″ balls and place them about 2″ apart on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet.
-
If you have more M&M's, stick a few in the top of the balls if you so wish - the more the merrier!
-
Bake for 6 to 7 minutes, but make sure you don't overcook so they don't dry out. I take them out just when I see an edge starting to brown.

Enjoy!

These cookies look so perfect for Easter and I bet they are moist and delicious.I am so glad
I found this lovely recipe that you posted for us.My family will love them!! 🙂
these cookies look so vibrant!
They look delicious! How many cookies does the recipe yield?
Making them now! I got about 20 cookies from one batch.
What kind of oil did you use?
I used vegetable oil this time.
Might have fixed it. I made them bigger and baked them longer – 11 minutes.
Either way, I love the idea. I will be taking the to work tomorrow as its my last day before the holiday. Might just play around with it in the future to make it my own. Thanks for the recipe!
do they come out more of a cakey texture or do they have a cookie heaviness to them?
They’ve be more of a moist and flaky cookie. they aren’t heavy at all.
