Ingredients:
For the Cookies:
15.25 ounces white cake mix (1 box – use your favorite brand)
3 ounces orange jello (1 box)
2 tablespoons orange zest
8 tablespoons salted butter, softened
2 large eggs, room temperature
11 ounces white chocolate chips
Directions:
Prep: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the white cake mix, orange gelatin powder, and orange zest until fully combined.
Add Wet Ingredients: Add the softened butter and eggs to the bowl. Use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the ingredients together just until combined, about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.
Fold in Chocolate Chips: Add the white chocolate chips and gently fold them into the cookie dough.
Form Cookies: Use a 1 ½ tablespoon cookie scoop to scoop out the dough, roll the dough into a ball, and place on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure to leave about 2 inches between each ball.
Bake: Bake the cookies for 10 to 13 minutes or until the edges are set. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool for about 10 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a cooling rack to finish cooling.
