Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and place a rack in the center of the oven. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, melted butter, egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Increase the mixer speed to medium and beat until the mixture comes together into a sticky ball, about 30 to 45 seconds.

03

Step

On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough to 1/4- to 1/2-inch thickness using a lightly floured rolling pin. Use cookie cutters to stamp out your desired shapes and place them 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Reroll dough scraps once to cut out more cookies. Brush the cookies with egg white and decorate with sprinkles. (20 minutes)

04

Step

Bake one pan at a time until the edges of the cookies are golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes for smaller cookies and 10 to 12 minutes for larger cookies.

05

Step

Let the cookies rest on the cookie sheet for 1 minute before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely, approximately 20 minutes. (21 minutes)

For snickerdoodles, mix cinnamon with sugar and roll the dough balls in this mixture before baking.
Add a citrus zest for a more complex flavor profile.
These cookies store well, lightly covered, at room temperature for up to 1 week.
