HERE IS HOW TO MAKE EASY CAKE MIX GRINCH COOKIES:

WHERE CAN I FIND THESE INGREDIENTS?

You can find the ingredients to make Easy Cake Mix Grinch Cookies at most grocery stores. Here’s a list of common ingredients and where to find them:

  1. Cake Mix (Green): Look for a green-colored cake mix in the baking aisle. You can also use a regular white cake mix and add green food coloring.
  2. Eggs: Found in the dairy section.
  3. Vegetable Oil: Available in the cooking oils aisle.
  4. Red M&Ms,sprinkles or other red candies: These can typically be found in the candy aisle.
  5. Optional Add-ins: If you want to include sprinkles or additional decorations, check the baking aisle or the seasonal section.

WHAT ARE THE INGREDIENTS?

The ingredients to make these super cute Grinch cake mix cookies are:

  • White/Vanilla Cake Mix
  • Green Food Colouring/Gel
  • Eggs
  • Oil
  • Red heart sprinkles

WHAT EQUIPMENT DO I NEED?

You don’t need too much for this recipe, all you’ll need are basic baking supplies which hopefully you already have at home! If you do want to purchase baking equipment, you can purchase some online from Amazon, at any home goods store or even the dollar store if you’re on a budget!

I will say this over and over again but cookie scoops are one of my fav tools! I use them for ice cream, cookie dough, meatballs, etc! I love how cookie scoops make everything so uniform!

Here are some of my fav Amazon kitchen and baking favs that I personally use!

CAN I SUBSTITUTE/ADD ANYTHING OUT?

Honestly, this is one of the most simple recipes so there isn’t much to edit in this, however, you can of course alter these cookies to how you’d like!

I saw online some variations where the cookies were rolled in icing sugar which is so cute and gives it a snow effect! Aside from this, you can do general cookie additions like chocolate chips, nuts, dried fruits etc!

WHAT DO EASY CAKE MIX GRINCH COOKIES TASTE LIKE?

Easy Cake Mix Grinch Cookies have a delightful combination of flavors and textures. The cookies are soft and chewy, thanks to the cake mix base. The addition of green food coloring gives them a festive appearance, while the powdered sugar coating adds a sweet, powdered finish that contrasts nicely with the soft cookie texture.

The little heart sprinkle doesn’t do too much but so cute for presentation!. These cookies are not only visually appealing but also deliver a deliciously sweet treat that both kids and adults will enjoy!

HOW LONG DOES IT KEEP FOR?

Easy Cake Mix Grinch Cookies can last for about 3 to 5 days when stored in an airtight container at room temperature. For longer storage, you can freeze them, and they’ll keep well for up to 2 to 3 months. Just make sure to thaw them at room temperature before enjoying!

INSPIRATIONS FOR THIS RECIPE?

I was brainstorming some ideas for Christmas ideas from Pinterest and saw so many variations of Grinch cookies! I knew I had to make a super easy cake mix version for people like me who loves to be festive but doesn’t have the time to go all out and put all my effort into something!

I love how cute and simple these cake mix cookies are and the best snack for watching The Grinch on a cozy winter evening!

ANY OTHER NOTES?

Yes! So, sprinkles and chocolates CAN of course melt so I would test a sprinkle in the oven first to see if it melts before putting all your sprinkles on the raw dough then baking. If your sprinkles or chocolate melt or get deformed, you can just add it on top once the cookies are done baking or you can plop them on a few minutes before the cookie is done baking!
