How to Make Easy Pumpkin Spice Cookies Cake Mix

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, pumpkin puree, eggs, and oil. Mix until just combined – don't overmix!
  3. Stir in the pumpkin pie spice and vanilla extract.
  4. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
  5. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs.
  6. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
