Kylee’s Notes & FAQs

Kylee’s Notes

These cookies will be super soft when coming out of the oven. Be sure to let them cool before trying to remove them from the cookie sheet.

How to store baked cookies

Store in a covered container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

Variations

You can make lemon cake mix cookies, by simply swapping out the cake mix flavor, all other ingredients remain the same.

Freezing instructions

The cookie dough balls can also be frozen before baking. Scoop onto a baking tray and freeze until solid. Store in a zip lock bag and pull out as many as you need that day. Bake as usual, don’t thaw – for an extra 4-5 minutes from frozen.

Eggs. You’ll need 2 eggs.
Vegetable oil.
White chocolate chips. These are optional. I mix them into the batter, but also keep a few to press into the cookies as they come out of the oven so they look pretty. You can also use milk or dark chocolate chips, or use m&m candies if you prefer.

Scoop

Using a small cookie scoop, scoop the batter from the mixing bowl onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them evenly apart.

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes. The edges will be lightly brown, and the cookies will be soft when you remove them.

Add the extra chocolate chips to the tops of the cookies, pressing them into the cookies lightly.

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then remove to wire racks to cool completely.
