Preheat oven to 350°F and mist a large cookie sheet with non-stick spray or line with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
Add cake mix, whipped topping, and egg to a large bowl.
Mix together until well combined.
Form balls of batter that are a generous Tablespoon each, then roll them in a small bowl of powdered sugar.
Place the cookie dough balls on the prepared pan and bake for 12-15 minutes.
When done, remove from oven and transfer to a wire cooling rack, using a spatula.

Use a full-size 15.25-oz box of cake mix. Smaller boxes (around 13 oz) can affect the texture and baking results.

Chill dough for 30–60 minutes to make it easier to handle. Lightly oil your hands when rolling to prevent sticking.

Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for 3–5 days, or freeze for up to 2–3 months.
