Easy Funfetti Christmas Cookies

This recipe yields soft and chewy funfetti Christmas cookies that are bursting with festive colors. They take about 25 minutes from start to finish and serve approximately 24 cookies.

Ingredients

1 box (15.25 oz) vanilla cake mix
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup colorful sprinkles
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
Add Sprinkles: Gently fold in the colorful sprinkles, baking powder, and salt until evenly distributed.
Scoop the Dough: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked, which will create a gooey texture.
Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
