Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, stir together the cake mix, vegetable oil, and eggs until a soft dough comes together.
- Shape the dough into 1-inch balls and arrange them on the prepared sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes — the edges should be set while the centers remain soft.
- Allow the cookies to rest on the baking sheets for 2 minutes, then move them to wire racks to finish cooling.
