Ingredients
For the Cookies

Instructions
Make the Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, orange sprinkles, oil, melted butter, and eggs. Mix everything together until well blended.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving some space between each cookie.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Add the Frosting
- Once the cookies are cool, spread vanilla frosting on top of each cookie, creating a nice layer.
- Top with green and purple sprinkles to add a festive look.
Notes
To make the cookies softer, avoid over-baking them. For extra flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the dough. You can also change the colors of the sprinkles to match other holidays.
