Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup avocado oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla optional
  • 1 (15.25-ounce) box Yellow Cake Mix

Instructions

  • Prep: Preheat oven to 350°F and prepare a cookie sheet by lining with parchment or coating with cooking spray. The cookies spread out quite a bit so it may be necessary to use more than one baking sheet or bake in batches.
  • Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, oil, and vanilla (optional) until fully combined.
  • Combine: Add cake mix to liquid ingredients and stir with a spatula or spoon to form a smooth dough.
  • Portion: Form round balls using 2 rounded tablespoons of dough and place 3-4 inches apart on the cookie sheet.
  • Bake: Bake for 13-15 minutes, rotating halfway through. Cookies will be done when they are almost fully set on the edges and slightly golden on the bottom.
  • Store: Let cool for a couple of minutes on the cookie sheet before transferring to a wire rack to let cool completely. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
