Ingredients
- 1 box of cake mix (any flavor you prefer, such as chocolate, lemon, or Funfetti)
- 1 tub of Cool Whip (8 oz, thawed)
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup of powdered sugar (for rolling the dough)
Optional Substitutions:
- For a gluten-free version, you can use gluten-free cake mix.
- If you have dairy restrictions, opt for a non-dairy whipped topping like Coco Whip.
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Mix the Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, Cool Whip, and egg. The mixture will be sticky, but that’s okay! Use a spatula to mix everything until combined.
Step 3: Shape the Dough
Once the dough is well mixed, scoop out small portions using a spoon or cookie scoop. Roll each portion into a ball, then coat it in powdered sugar. This step gives the cookies their signature crinkle look.
Step 4: Bake the Cookies
Place the sugar-coated dough balls onto the lined baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each one. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies have set and the tops are cracked.
Step 5: Cool and Serve
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your Cool Whip Cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!

- Chill the dough: If the dough is too sticky to handle, place it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. This will make it easier to roll into balls.
- Use different cake mixes: Experiment with different flavors of cake mix, such as red velvet or lemon, to create new variations of your cookies.
- Add extras: For a little extra flavor, you can mix in chocolate chips, sprinkles, or nuts to the dough.
