I am SO loving these cookies! These go perfectly with my Grinch Kabobs! These are really fun to make and then have a Grinch watching party…green cookies and grinch kabobs! 😉 Have fun and enjoy making these with the kiddos or just for a party.
Grinch Crinkle Cookie
INGREDIENTS:
- 18.25 oz Box Vanilla Cake Mix
- 1 stick Butter melted
- 2 Eggs
- Green Food Coloring
- 1 cup Powdered Sugar
- 1 tbsp Corn Starch
- 1 tbsp Vegetable Oil
DIRECTIONS:
- Preheat oven to 375.
- Cover cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix together corn starch and powdered sugar in a shallow dish.
- In a large bowl, mix together butter cake mix and eggs (this will be thick).
- Add enough green food coloring to get bright green (a lot).
- In order to keep from getting your hands all green, use 2 spoons to gather up a chunk of dough and drop into the sugar starch mixture.
- Roll around with the spoons to cover well. Then pick up and roll into a ball and place on cookie sheet.
- Make sure you don’t place too close as they will spread out some.
- Bake for about 8-10 minutes until they puff up.
- Allow to cool on cookie sheet for several minutes before transferring to cooling rack.

December 22, 2013 at 11:46 amI would think you use the oil to grease your hands so the dough doesn’t stick. Just a guess.

December 17, 2013 at 8:56 pmI made these tonight with my daughter and they are really good – not overly sweet! I didn’t use the oil since there wasn’t a place to add it that made sense. Thanks so much!

December 13, 2014 at 6:17 pmPlease reply where the oil goes. It seems that I am not the only person looking for this answer.

December 23, 2014 at 6:03 pmI think the oil does go into the mix. It doesn’t make sense to use it on your hands since you’re supposed to use the spoons. However, using your hands works just fine because the green food coloring is not going to get on your hands when mixed with everything else. That said, I did add the oil to the mix and it worked out fine. To answer the other question, I got 19 cookies out of this, so you could easily stretch it to 20. Also, be very careful not to overbake because they turn to kind of a putrid color. 🙂 Hope that helps a little bit!

December 23, 2014 at 6:12 pmAnd they taste AMAZING! Seriously, if you’re going to make these cookies, buy two cake mixes. 🙂
