Cake Mix Snickerdoodles

These Snickerdoodle Cake Mix Cookies are SOOO easy to make. And only take 5 ingredients! Using Cake Mix to make desserts is the ultimate shortcut! Ready to get started? Here is what you’ll need:

• 1 ½ cups vanilla cake mix
• ¼ cup butter, melted and cooled
• 1 egg
• 3 tbsp sugar
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon

Storage, Leftovers and Freezing

Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature. They should be good for about 5 days. 

You can freeze cake mix snickerdoodles. Let them thaw to room temperature and then put in a freezer bag or freezer safe container. I like to separate them with parchment paper so they don’t freeze together. They will be good in your freezer for about 4 months. Thaw out at room temperature. 

Notes, Tips and Variations For Cake Mix Snickerdoodles

• Use a Gluten Free cake mix to make these Gluten Free!
• Try to roll balls of the dough to the same size (about 1-inch balls) so that they bake evenly.
• If you’d like you can chill them in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes before baking. 
• Mix things up a bit by using French Vanilla or White Cake Mix or Yellow Cake Mix!
• Letting them cool on the wire rack after cooking is important! Get them off that baking sheet or they may overcook!
