Crinkle Grinch cookies are soft, chewy and fun to make. With green dough, icing sugar and a red heart, they’re festive treats perfect for holiday baking.
With a stand mixer or electric mixer, cream together cake mix, food coloring, oil, and eggs.
Chill the dough for 15 minutes.
Roll a tablespoon of dough into a ball and then roll in icing sugar.
Place on a parchment lined baking sheet and press a large heart sprinkle in the middle.
Place baking sheet and cookies in the fridge to chill for 5 minutes.
Bake for 6 to 8 minutes.
Let cool on pan and then remove to cool completely on a wire rack
Notes
Chill dough: Cold dough is easier to shape and prevents spreading. Use parchment: Lining the baking sheet helps cookies bake evenly. Don’t overbake: They should look soft when removed, as they firm while cooling. Press hearts gently: Press the sprinkles lightly so they stay in place without flattening the cookie.
