We love a great shortcut when baking a batch of cookies! These quick and easy snickerdoodle cookies start with an easy-to-use box of Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ White Cake Mix so you only need to add a few more ingredients to transform the mix into snickerdoodles. Don’t forget to roll your dough in cinnamon sugar at the end to give them a perfectly sweet and flavorful finish.

Ingredients

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick cookie sheets). In large bowl, mix cake mix, melted butter and egg with spoon until soft dough forms.
  • 2
    Shape dough into 1-inch balls. In small bowl, mix sugar and cinnamon. Roll balls in sugar-cinnamon mixture. Place about 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Discard any remaining sugar-cinnamon mixture.
  • 3
    Bake 7 to 9 minutes or until edges are set. Cool 1 minute. Remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 30 minutes. Store covered at room temperature.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Use a cookie scoop to make portioning cookie dough and shaping into balls more consistent, and to bake more evenly.
  • tip 2
    Cookies turn out best when baked one cookie sheet at a time on middle oven rack.
  • tip 3
    Oven times may vary so watch your cookies closely to not overbake.
  • tip 4
    While we love this delicious shortcut to make snickerdoodles, sometimes you just want to make cookies from scratch the old-fashioned way. Our highly-rated traditional Classic Snickerdoodle Cookies Recipe is a fool-proof recipe that has been loved by home cooks for years!
  • tip 5
    Do you need a gluten-free version? We love this recipe for Gluten-Free Snickerdoodles that is simple to make and makes wonderfully chewy and delicious snickerdoodles!
