Ingredients
1 box (15.25 oz or approximately 432 grams) chocolate cake mix for rich flavor
1/3 cup (about 80 ml) canola or vegetable oil for moisture and binding
2 eggs for structure and dough holding
1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract for boosting taste
1/4 cup (30 grams) powdered sugar for coating dough balls
Instructions
1-First, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet no need for lining if it’s ungreased.
2-In a large bowl, mix the chocolate cake mix, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and dough-like.
3-Refrigerate the dough for 20 minutes to firm it up, which makes handling easier.
4-Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and coat each one fully in powdered sugar for that crinkle look.
5-Space the balls 2 inches apart on the cookie sheet to allow for even spreading during baking.
6-Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, watching closely to get them just right.
7-Finally, cool the cookies briefly on the sheet before transferring them to a rack.
