Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F and line a sheet pan with parchment paper.

  2. Step 2

    Stir cake mix, egg, and oil in a bowl until just combined — the dough will be thick.

  3. Step 3

    Scoop dough in 1-inch balls onto the sheet pan, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

  4. Step 4

    Bake 10–12 minutes until the edges look set but the centers still jiggle slightly.

  5. Step 5

    Cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
