Ingredients
  

  • 1 box yellow, white or spice cake mix 15.25 ounces
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 cup fall-themed sprinkles separated
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice optional, only for yellow or white cake mix (don't use extra spices if you have a spice cake mix)
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips or chopped nuts optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the cake mix, oil, eggs, and vanilla and pumpkin pie spice (if using) until a soft dough forms.
  • Gently fold 2–3 tablespoons of sprinkles into the dough, along with any optional add-ins like mini chocolate chips or chopped nuts.
  • Scoop about 1½ tablespoons of dough per cookie onto a lined baking sheet. Leave some room between the cookies for them to spread.
  • Sprinkle the tops of the cookies with more sprinkles.
  • Bake for 9–11 minutes, until the edges are set but the centers still look slightly soft.
  • Let cookies rest on the sheet until cool. If needed. use a rubber spatula to gently remove them from the pan.
  • I actually liked these cookies stored in the fridge. They tasted almost refreshing chilled. However, you can also store them at room temperature in an airtight container.
