Description

Soft, chewy, and impossibly easy—these Grinch Cake Mix Cookies bring the holiday spirit in every bite. With bright green centers, snowy powdered sugar, and sweet red hearts on top, they’re festive fun straight from a box mix.


Ingredients

Scale

1 box vanilla cake mix (15.25 oz)

½ cup vegetable oil

2 eggs

Green food coloring

½ cup powdered sugar (for rolling)

Red heart candies or sprinkles


Instructions

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

In a large bowl, mix together cake mix, oil, and eggs until smooth.

Add green food coloring until the dough reaches a vibrant Grinch green.

Roll dough into 1-inch balls and coat generously in powdered sugar.

Place on prepared baking sheet, spacing cookies 2 inches apart.

Bake for 8–10 minutes, until edges are set and tops are crackled.

Press a red candy heart gently onto each cookie while still warm.

Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
