Indulge in a decadent treat that you can prepare in no time! Using a chocolate cake mix shortcut, this recipe delivers irresistibly moist, chocolatey cookies with a beautiful white crinkle coating - perfect with a glass of cold milk.
Preheat your oven to 350F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper for easy cookie handling and clean-up.
2
In a medium bowl, combine your vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Use a hand mixer on a low setting to blend these until they are fully incorporated.
3
Gradually add the Devil's food cake chocolate cake mix to your egg and oil mixture. Continue mixing until you have a homogenous, slightly lighter colored batter. This should take about five minutes.
4
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scooper, scoop out 24 portions of cookie dough. Each portion should be about an inch in diameter.
5
Roll the cookie dough balls in the granulated sugar, making sure each ball is thoroughly coated.
6
Immediately after the granulated sugar, proceed to roll the sugared cookie dough balls into the powdered sugar. Make sure each ball is generously coated. This will give your cookies a classic, deliciously sweet crinkle effect.
7
Align the sugar-coated cookie dough balls on your prepared baking trays, leaving about two inches space between each.
8
Bake your cookies in the preheated oven for approximately 10-12 minutes. Cookies are ready when they've crinkled and puffed up. Be careful not to overcook, as they will continue to set as they cool.
9
After baking, allow the cookies to cool on the baking tray for 10 minutes. Afterward, transfer them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
