How to Make Valentine Confetti Cookies

These cookies are super easy to make and come together so quickly. It only takes a few simple steps and a few minutes. That’s all there is to it! 

Step 1: Prep

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper. Bake 1 cookie sheet at a time or bake two, then bake the next batch separately. 

Step 2: Combine the Dry Ingredients

Mix the cake mix and baking soda in a large bowl. 

Step 3: Combine the Wet Ingredients

Combine the eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract in another bowl. 

Step 4: Make the Batter

Add the egg mixture to the cake mixture and beat with an electric mixer until combined. Then, add Valentine’s sprinkles and mix. 

Step 5: Bake

Scoop out the dough with a small cookie scoop and place each ball on the prepared baking sheet, leaving an inch between each dough ball. Sprinkle with more Valentine’s sprinkles and bake for 8 to 9 minutes until the cookies begin to brown slightly. 

Step 6: Cool

Remove the cookies and let them cool on the cookie sheet for 3 minutes. Then, transfer them to a cooling rack to cool completely. Then do this again with the next cookie sheet. Enjoy!

Variations

  • Use your favorite cake mix for these cookies. Any will work!
  • Try adding white chocolate chips to the batter for more flavor. 
  • You can frost these cookies with pink buttercream frosting if you like.

Equipment

  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk, this is the wire whisk I love and use all the time
  • Cookie Scoop, I used this small cookie scoop
  • Cookie sheets

Storage

Store these cookies at room temperature in a covered container for up to a week. For longer storage, you can refrigerate them in an air-tight container for up to a week or freeze them for up to 3 months in an air-tight, freezer-safe container. 

Tips

  • Mixing the dough is easiest with a hand or stand mixer.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet first so the carry-over cooking time can finish baking them. 

FAQ

What are cake mix cookies?

Cake mix cookies are cookies that are made primarily with cake mix rather than a flour mixture. 

What is the texture of cake mix cookies?

Unsurprisingly, cake mix cookies have a cake-like texture. Although they aren’t crumbly like a cake, they do have a soft, chewy texture. 

Why are my cookies too soft in the middle?

These cookies need to cool on the cookie sheet so carry-over cooking time can continue baking them to perfection. If you remove them too soon, the middle of your cookies will be underdone.
