Have a package of muffin mix, but really want cookies instead? No Problem! With this 4-ingredient recipe for Muffin Mix Cookies, it's easy to take any flavor or brand of muffin mix and turn it into a batch of delicious homemade cookies!

Ingredients

  • 8-10 Tbsp unsalted butter, (room temperature (see notes for amount))
  • 1-2 packages muffin mix ((see notes for sizes))
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or Silpats.

  2. 2

    In the bowl of a stand mixer or in a large bowl with a hand mixer, cream the butter until light and fluffy, 2-3 minutes (if you don't have a mixer, you can use a bowl and wooden spoon/spatula).

  3. 3

    Mix egg and vanilla extract into the butter (don't worry if your mixture looks a little runny).

  4. 4

    Add the muffin mix to the butter mixture and mix until just combined, taking care not to over-mix.

  5. 5

    Scoop about 2 Tbsp of cookie dough (I use a #40 cookie scoop) onto the prepared baking sheets.

  6. 6

    Bake for 11-13 minutes, until cookies are just turning golden around the edges, but are still soft. Let cookies cool in the pan for a couple minutes before moving to wire racks to cool completely.
