Simple and delicious! I used chocolate cake mix and added in some chocolate mint pieces to the tops and they came out wonderful! The family really enjoyed these!! Thanks for sharing

I love a good cake mix cookie and these were pretty good. The directions didn’t say whether to bake them in a ball or to flatten them before baking. I tried it both ways. The ones that were flattened cooked more evenly. The ones that I left in a ball, were a little too done on the bottom to ensure they were cooked all the way through. The finished cookies had a nice flavor and the kids enjoyed them.

I made a variety of desserts for Thanksgiving and these were the favorite! I used Betty Crocker Triple Chocolate Fudge cake mix and Jell-O Devil’s Food pudding. They came out so moist and rich, just like a brownie. The best part, they are super easy! I will try different flavors next time to see how those turn out.

This is a fun recipe. They turned out great, our new favorite chocolate cookie recipe! I used gluten free cake mix, and had to add a bit more water. The recipe is so versatile. I can’t wait to experiment with other flavors!

Great recipe!! I used yellow cake mix and white chocolate ( flavored) pudding mix. Sprinkled green sugar on top for upcoming St Patty’s Day. Delicious and so easy! Thanks

Turned out great! I used a white cake mix and French vanilla pudding. I was out of vegetable oil, so I used melted coconut oil. The dough was a little tough to hand-stir extras into, but rolling the dough balls in sprinkles worked well! I baked mine for 12 minutes. Resting afterwards was a must for them to hold together when picking up. Definitely a keeper!

Thank you so much for this recipe! I’ve been searching for a vegan cake mix cookie recipe for some time after seeing “Grinch Cookies” on Pinterest. Because it’s not quite time for the Grinch, we made monster cookies and I’m so thrilled with how they turned out! We chilled the dough for 3-4 hours before baking because I’m my experience I’ve noticed vegan cookies spread a lot if not chilled. We used Duncan Hines white cake mix and vanilla pudding mix, and added a few drops of green food coloring. They’re very moist and my 4 year old is ecstatic!
