Description

These Red, White, and Blue Cake Mix Cookies are soft, colorful, and full of festive fun. Made with a box of white cake mix and patriotic-colored sprinkles or candies, they come together in minutes and are a hit at any summer celebration.


Ingredients

  • 1 box (15.25 oz) white cake mix

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)

  • 1/2 cup red, white, and blue M&M’s or chocolate candies

  • 1/4 cup red, white, and blue sprinkles


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a large bowl, mix the cake mix, eggs, oil, and vanilla (if using) until a thick dough forms.

  3. Gently fold in the red, white, and blue M&M’s and sprinkles.

  4. Scoop out tablespoon-sized amounts of dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart.

  5. Bake for 9–11 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops no longer look wet.

  6. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.


Notes

  • Don’t overbake—the cookies will continue to set as they cool.

  • You can use patriotic chocolate chips or other colored candies instead of M&M’s.

  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
