Ingredients
8ozCool Whip whipped topping(thawed)
15.25ozboxed cake mix
1large egg
½cuppowdered sugar
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Add Cool Whip, egg, and boxed cake mix to a large mixing bowl. Stir ingredients together until blended. (Tip: don't over-mix!)
Add powdered sugar to a small bowl. Take a 2 tablespoon portion of cookie dough and dip into the powdered sugar until coated.
Place coated cookies on a baking sheet lined with a silicone mat or parchment paper. Bake at 350 degrees for 9-11 minutes (less time for more fudgy cookies, more time for more cakey cookies).
Allow to cool on the baking sheet for 10-15 minutes before moving to a baking rack for cooling.
Notes
Let cookies cool completely before storing to prevent sticking.
If dough is too sticky to roll, chill it in the freezer for 15 minutes.
Bake 9 minutes for fudgy cookies; 11 minutes for cakier texture.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 4-6 days.
Freeze in a sealed bag for up to 6 months; thaw in the fridge.
Avoid add-ins, as they may sink due to the light texture.
