I have been making this M&M Cake Mix Cookies Recipe since 2014. I make these all year round but for some reason, these always end up being a favorite Christmas holiday cookie of the kid. Once we can find the green and red M&Ms we make them, generally November 1 if you have never tried to hunt down the holiday bags. (I have included affiliate links to products I love.

M&M Cake Mix Cookies Recipe Ingredients:
- 1 Box White Cake Mix
- 1/2 Tsp Baking Powder
- 2 Eggs
- 1/2 Cup Vegetable oil
- 1/2 Tsp Vanilla
- 1 Bag M&Ms
How To Make M&M Cake Mix Cookies:
Preheat your over to 350 degrees.
Mix together all of the ingredients except for M&Ms.
After all the other ingredients are well mixed slowly add in the M&Ms. You can use less M&Ms but we like cookies with lots of candy.
Scoop dough into balls and place on a cookie sheet. Scoop onto cookie sheet!! I use a cookie scoop to do it (You can get one -> here) to make the cookie shapes and to keep them uniform.
Bake for about 8-10 minutes
Allow to cool on a wire rack before storing, the chocolate will hold the heat, so be sure to properly cool! I have about 10 different wire racks, and when I go on a baking frenzy it’s convenient to have a lot of them! I use mine at least once a week!
If you aren’t storing them plate them and enjoy!
