Sugar Cookie Gems
These bite-sized sugar cookies start with a simple yellow cake mix base for a tender, chewy texture. Using a boxed mix cuts down on prep work while delivering consistent results. They are a quick option for afternoon snacks or casual weekend baking. A splash of vanilla extract adds warmth to the buttery dough.
Ingredients
- 1 box Betty Crocker Gluten Free yellow cake mix
- ½ cup butter, softened
- 1 teaspoon gluten-free vanilla
- 1 egg
Instructions
- 1Preheat the oven to 350°F. Combine the yellow cake mix, softened butter, vanilla, and egg in a large mixing bowl, stirring until a cohesive dough forms.
- 2Scoop the dough by the teaspoon and roll it into 18 individual balls. Arrange the balls on ungreased baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each one. Gently flatten the top of each cookie using the flat bottom of a drinking glass.
- 3Bake for 9 to 11 minutes until the cookies are set. Let them rest on the baking sheets for 2 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
