These Devils Food Crinkles are a cinch to make because all you need to do is add a few ingredients to your favorite cake mix, bake, and enjoy!
Woohoo! Day 5 of my 12 Days of Holiday Treats series and I feel like I’m up about 5 pounds. At least my math is spot on!
Today, I present to you a wonderfully easy cookie. Do I prefer to cook from scratch? Yes. Do I find these cookies extraordinarily easy to make and am willing to make an exception on occasion? Yes. Are they good? Heck yes.
My sister described these as being similar to a chocolate pop tart. I, having never eaten one, can only imagine. My husband was extremely fond of these cookies as well. And, considering that I had stacks of them in the tupperware only to find about six remaining cookies by the time I split them all up to give away, I’m pretty confident my little thief of a son loved them too.
Cake mixes are easy and fool proof to work with. This recipe literally takes a few minutes to whip up and the final cookie is chewy and delicious.

Yes, they turned out great, never tried this recipe and it was easy. I will be making other flavors for sure!
Thank you.
These are great & I made them 2 weeks ago & making them again today. I love simple recipes!
Tastes like a chocolate pop tart?! I’m sold!
I can’t ever resist chocolate crinkle cookies. This is my favorite recipe!
Add a touch of peppermint extract to batter at Christmas for a special holiday treat.
Mmm these were delicious! Thank you so much!
Oh my gosh, you made my all-time fave cookie even easier by using a boxed cake mix!
These are the best!! They do not last long at our house & I love how easy they are to make & require little ingredients!
I’m gonna make these but add mini chocolate chips. ๐
So made cookies with coconut oil.
My daughter said they kinda taste like almond joys
Thanks
I have a half box of cake mix. Could this recipe be halved?
I don’t see why not?
My husband loves these cookies. I want to make him a crinkle cake for his birthday. How much should I put in a round 9 โ cake pan. I will roll it it in confectionery sugar prior too. And how long should it take to bake.
I’ve never made a crinkle cake!
