Red Velvet Crinkle Cookies - these cookies are made with a box cake mix and rolled into powdered sugar! The perfect cookie to make when you need to make something fast for the Holidays!
Why You Will Love This Cookie Recipe
I'm a fan of really easy recipes. These cookies are one of those recipes. The batter is 3 easy ingredients which include premade cake mix, oil, and 2 eggs.
Use a really small ice cream scoop to shape the cookies into a round ball and roll them in some powdered sugar. The powdered sugar gives them the crinkled look.
You can easily mix and match the flavors of these cookies using different flavored cake mixes. Not just Red Velvet! Make sure it's a 15oz size box.
What kind of cake mixes can I use? Chocolate, Spice Cake, Carrot Cake, Lemon, Funfetti, or Sugar Free Cake Mix.
Ingredients Needed
- 1 (18 ¼ ounce) box Red Velvet cake mix (Betty Crocker Super Moist suggested)
- 1⁄2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- confectioners' sugar or granulated sugar, for rolling
How to Make
- Preheat oven to 350°.
- Stir (by hand) dry cake mix, oil and eggs in a large bowl until dough forms.
- Dust hands with confectioners' sugar and shape dough into 1" balls.
- Roll balls in confectioners' sugar and place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes or until center is JUST SET.
- Remove from pans after a minute or so and cool on wire racks.
This won't be last of the cookie recipes you will see on this blog. I plan on posting cookie recipes all December long!

I’ve made this recipe several times and it was a huge hit every time! I’ve also actually used different cake mixes instead and lemon seems to be everyone’s favorite. It’s super easy to make and quick too!
Annie says
Made these and they are great. I added some dark chocolate chunks to half of the dough and they were even better. Only complaint that 8 to 10 min is wayyyyyy to short. I ended up baking mine for at least 20 min.
Thanks for sharing!!!

I made these cookies a couple weeks ago and they were super good! My siblings and I loved them and it was about a couple hours before they were almost all gone! I had to hide the cookies so they wouldn't finish them in one single day! I loved these a lot 🙂

@Ashley to each their own...
Ashley says
I just made these cookies and they turned out terrible. They looked great but after trying them they tasted nasty. I have made red velvet cookies before but always used butter rather then oil and decided to try this. About to throw them out
Debbie says
