Tips for the Best Cake Mix Cookies

The best red velvet cake mix cookies are soft and chewy. Here’s how to ensure your cookies are just perfect.

• Don’t overbake. For the best, chewiest texture, make sure to not overcook the cookies. They should be baked until the cookies just start to crack and before they turn golden.
• Cool the baking sheet between batches. When making several batches always try to let your baking sheet cool before putting on more dough. If the baking sheet is hot this will spread the cookie dough out faster making them flatter.
• Make all cookies the same size. Use a cookie scoop for uniform cookies so they’ll cook evenly.
• Does the brand of cake mix matter? No, these cookies can be made with any brand of cake mix.

Making Ahead & Storing Leftovers

• Can I make these in advance? Yes, you can make the cake mix cookie dough 2 days in advance. Pre-scoop the dough and transfer to an airtight container. Store in the fridge.
• How to store baked cookies. After the cookies cool completely, transfer to an airtight container. They will last for 4 days at room temperature.
• Can I freeze cake mix cookies? Yes, you can freeze both the cookie dough and baked cookies. To freeze the dough, scoop onto a sheet pan and flash freeze. Once frozen solid, transfer to a freezer-safe plastic bag. This is perfect for those days when you just want to bake one or two cookies. To freeze the baked cookies, allow them to cool then place in a freezer-safe bag. They’ll last for up to 1 month in the freezer.
