15-Minute Gluten Free Christmas Cookies with Sprinkles (5-Ingredient)
These 15-Minute Gluten Free Christmas Cookies with Sprinkles are an easy treat to make during the holiday season and they only require 5-ingredients. They are so easy, even the kids can make them. Get creative by adding a chocolate or peppermint kiss into the top just when they come out of the oven.

Cost: $6
Ingredients
- 17 ounce (1 box) gluten-free yellow cake mix dry
- 1 box vanilla pudding mix, dry
- 8 tablespoon butter, softened
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup Christmas sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees
- In a stand mixer, combine the dry cake mix, the dry pudding mix, butter and eggs then mix well
- Using a mini cookie (icecream) scoop, roll dough into about 1” balls
- In another bowl, add the sprinkles
- Roll each cookie dough ball in the sprinkles
- Place balls on a silicone mat lined baking sheet and bake cookies 8-10 minutes or until the cookies are lightly brown on the bottom and still soft to the touch on top (I like them just undercooked)
- Remove cookies from the oven and let the cookies rest for 1-2 minutes then transfer to a wire rack
Notes
Pro Tip: Any gluten-free cake mix will do but I prefer this easy to find Pillsbury gluten-free yellow cake mix.
You can make these dairy-free by simply using a dairy-free butter stick and a dairy-free, gluten-free cake mix.
I love to freeze them and pull just one or two out when I want (I almost put need) them. They only take 15 minutes or so to thaw. Although, I love them cold and a bit frozen.
Leftovers can be store in an airtight container for 3-4 days. Make sure to let them cool to room temperature before putting them in a container with the lid.
