Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 box red velvet cake mix
- 1/3 cup canola oil
- 2 large eggs
- Powdered sugar, for rolling
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the red velvet cake mix, canola oil, and eggs.
- Mix Dough: Mix until a soft dough forms. If the dough seems too sticky, chill it in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes before rolling.
- Form Balls: Roll the dough into 1-inch balls.
- Coat in Powdered Sugar: Generously roll each dough ball in powdered sugar until fully coated.
- Bake: Place the coated dough balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies begin to crack on top and are set around the edges.
- Cool: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For a more intense red velvet flavor, add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the dough.
- If you don’t have canola oil, you can substitute vegetable oil or melted coconut oil.
- Chilling the dough helps prevent the cookies from spreading too much while baking.
- These cookies are best enjoyed within a few days of baking.
