Easy Cool Whip Cookies Recipe – Soft, Fluffy 5-Ingredient Cookies

Cool Whip Cookies Recipe

These Cool Whip Cookies are soft, fluffy, colorful, and incredibly easy to make with just 5 simple ingredients. They have a sweet crinkle-cookie look, a light cake-mix texture, and fun M&M’s in every bite.

Ingredients

Cake Mix
Use white, yellow, vanilla, funfetti, lemon, strawberry, or chocolate cake mix. Any flavor works, so this recipe is easy to customize.

Cool Whip
Cool Whip gives these cookies their soft, fluffy texture. Make sure it is thawed before mixing.

Egg
One large egg helps bring the dough together.

Powdered Sugar
Rolling the dough balls in powdered sugar creates the pretty crinkle-cookie look.

M&M’s
M&M’s add color, crunch, and a fun party-style look. You can use regular, mini, holiday, or pastel M&M’s.

Instructions

Step 1: Mix the Dough

In a large bowl, mix the cake mix, thawed Cool Whip, and egg until a thick dough forms.

Step 2: Add the M&M’s

Gently fold in most of the M&M’s. Save a few extra pieces to press on top before baking.

Step 3: Roll in Powdered Sugar

Scoop the dough into small balls, then roll each one in powdered sugar until fully coated.

Step 4: Bake

Place the dough balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Press a few extra M&M’s on top, then bake until the cookies look crackly and set.

Step 5: Cool and Enjoy

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before moving them to a wire rack.
