Easy Gingerbread Cookies Recipe

Step 1

Add the egg and butter in a mixing bowl and mix until thoroughly combined.

Step 2

Sift the boxed cake mix.

Step 3

Add the cake mix into the wet mixture and mix until just combined. Don’t over mix.

Step 4

Chill dough for about 1-2 hours so that it's easier to handle. It also prevents cookies from spreading too much while baking and they hold their shape better.

Step 5

Roll the dough between two sheets of wax paper and use your cutters to cut out various shapes.

Step 6

Bake at 350 degrees for 6-8 minutes or until the edges are firm and slightly brown.

Step 7

Allow the cookies to cool down and then decorate them with royal icing/ melted chocolate and candies. Enjoy!
