Yellow Cake Mix Cookies By Kelly Miller • October28,2012 • Updated February 1, 2022 • 16 Comments 1.4K 22 Jump to Recipe Yellow Cake Mix Cookies made with boxed yellow cake mix, baking powder, eggs, oil, vanilla, and colored sprinkles. So easy to make for a party or a holiday! I first made these cookies for Wesley’s birthday party. They look and taste like bakery cookies! So much cheaper, too, and I LOVE that you can customize the colors yourself. We have a local grocery outlet that sells tons of colored sprinkles so I picked up orange and dark brown to make these. So cute! Make a batch of these and send them with your kids to give out at their school Halloween parties instead of candy. I was able to get 2 1/2 dozen cookies out of one batch (one box of cake mix). Looking for something else to make with a cake mix? ~30 Fall Treats with a Cake Mix ~Easy Butter Cookies Yellow Cake Mix Cookies Yellow Cake Mix Cookies made with boxed yellow cake mix, baking powder, eggs, oil, vanilla, and colored sprinkles.

the cape on the corner says October 31, 2012 at 7:36 pm oh my gosh, this…this i need. bakery cookies are my favorite, and these look just like them. do they taste like them, too? Reply
Kelly @ Semi Homemade Mom says October 31, 2012 at 7:48 pm They're definitely more soft than the cookies in the bakery. I could taste the cake mix in them because I made them, but my husband couldn't tell that's what I used. You can't beat the price difference, though, and they still taste fantastic! Reply
