Directions:

  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, Cool Whip, and egg until well combined and smooth.
  3. If desired, chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to make it easier to handle.
  4. Scoop the dough using a cookie scoop or tablespoon and roll into balls.

  6. Place the coated balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are set and lightly golden around the edges.
