Ingredients
  

  • 13.25 oz yellow cake mix
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 2 large eggs

Equipment

  • mixing bowl
  • Baking sheets

Method
 

  1. Heat the oven to 350°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Mix the creamy peanut butter, oil, and eggs until smooth.
  3. Add the yellow cake mix and stir just until no dry mix remains.
  4. Scoop the dough into 1 1/2-tablespoon portions, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  5. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the edges are set and the centers are slightly soft.
  6. Cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use regular creamy peanut butter for the most consistent dough texture.
  • Do not overbake; the cookies continue to set as they cool.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
