We love a great shortcut when baking a batch of cookies! These quick and easy snickerdoodle cookies start with an easy-to-use box of Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ White Cake Mix so you only need to add a few more ingredients to transform the mix into snickerdoodles. Don’t forget to roll your dough in cinnamon sugar at the end to give them a perfectly sweet and flavorful finish.
Updated Mar 30, 2023

Ingredients

  • 1 box (16.25 oz) Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ White Cake Mix
  • 1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick cookie sheets). Mix cake mix, butter and egg in large bowl with spoon until dough forms (some dry mix will remain).
  • 2
    Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Mix sugar and cinnamon in small bowl. Roll balls in cinnamon-sugar mixture. Place about 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
  • 3
    Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until set. Remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Use a cookie scoop to make portioning cookie dough and shaping into balls more consistent, and to bake more evenly.
  • tip 2
    Cookies turn out best when baked one cookie sheet at a time on middle oven rack.
  • tip 3
    Oven times may vary so watch your cookies closely to not overbake.
  • tip 4
    While we love this delicious shortcut to make snickerdoodles, sometimes you just want to make cookies from scratch the old-fashioned way. Our highly-rated traditional Classic Snickerdoodle Cookies Recipe is a fool-proof recipe that has been loved by home cooks for years!
  • tip 5
