Preparation Steps
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Line three cookie baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mat. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat together white cake mix (just the dry mix), eggs, vegetable oil, all-purpose flour and vanilla extract until smooth (about two minutes with electric hand mixer).
- Separate cookie batter equally into 6 small bowls. Color one bowl red, one orange, one yellow, one green, one blue and one purple.
- To fully combine the colors into each cookie batter bowl, spray your hands very lightly with non-stick cooking spray then carefully squish and knead each bowl of dough to completely combine color into dough. Wash hands between each bowl so you don’t mix colors.
- Scoop cookies onto baking sheets (place cookies at least two inches apart). Cookies should be 2-tablespoons in size (30 grams each). Roll each cookie into a ball shape before baking.
- Bake each cookie sheet separately. Each cookie tray will need to bake for 12-13 minutes. Cookies should rise and the tops will look set. Let cookies cool completely on the baking sheet before removing.
- Store covered in a food storage container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
Notes
For the most vibrant colors, use gel food coloring. Liquid food coloring can make the batter too loose. A food scale is recommended for dividing the batter evenly for consistent cookie sizes.
