- 1 Duncan Hines Red Velvet Cake Mix (or any brand)
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs room temperature
- 1 cup powdered sugar
Preheat the oven to 350 F. Line a large, rimmed cookie or baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a medium bowl, mix the red velvet cake mix, eggs, and oil together until well blended. The dough will be pretty sticky.
1 Duncan Hines Red Velvet Cake Mix, ½ cup vegetable oil, 2 large eggs
Refrigerate dough for 30 minutes, then scoop the dough out by 1½ tablespoons and form into balls.
Pro Tip: You can use some of the powdered sugar to dust your hands with to help shape the balls also.
Fill a small mixing bowl with powdered sugar so you can drop the balls of cookie dough into it.
1 cup powdered sugar
Roll each cookie ball in the powdered sugar, coating it generously.
Place the sugar coated cookie balls on the parchment covered cookie sheet about 2" apart.
Bake for 10 - 12 minutes, or until the cookies are set on the edges and crinkled on their surface.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to rest for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
- Refrigerating the cookie dough for 30 minutes makes it easier to roll this sticky dough into cookie balls.
- Dust your hands with some of the powdered sugar to help shape the chilled cookie dough into the balls.
