Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F and line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
Step 2
Stir cake mix, egg, and oil in a bowl until just combined — the dough will be thick.
Step 3
Scoop dough in 1-inch balls onto the sheet pan, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 4
Bake 10–12 minutes until the edges look set but the centers still jiggle slightly.
Step 5
Cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
