Scale

Ingredients

  • 8.5 oz corn muffin mix (such as Jiffy)
  • 4 tbsp butter, softened
  • 2 egg yolks, room temperature
  • 1/4 cup sugar (optional, see notes)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper to ensure even baking and easy cleanup.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the corn muffin mix, softened butter, egg yolks, and sugar if using. Beat with an electric mixer until the batter is smooth and fully incorporated.
  3. Portion Cookies: Using a scoop or spoon, drop 24 evenly sized dollops of batter onto the prepared cookie sheets, spacing them apart to prevent spreading together.
  4. Bake: Place the cookie sheets in the oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown, indicating that the cookies are cooked through and perfectly crisped.

Notes

  • The sugar is optional and can be adjusted based on your preferred sweetness level.
  • Ensure the egg yolks are at room temperature for better mixing.
  • Do not overmix the batter to keep cookies tender.
  • Allow cookies to cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
