Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats and set aside.
In a large bowl, add your cake mix, eggs, and oil and stir with a spatula until fully mixed.
15.25 ounces Red Velvet Cake Mix, 2 large eggs, ⅓ cup vegetable oil
Pour in the M&Ms; and stir so they're evenly distributed into the cookie dough.
¾ cup M&Ms
Use a cookie scoop to drop 12 cookies onto each prepared cookie sheet. I like to press in a few extra M&Ms; into the tops of the dough balls.
Bake for 8-10 minutes then remove from oven and let cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to fully cool.

Traditionally made with buttermilk, cocoa powder, and red food coloring.
Flavor is unique — not fully chocolate, not fully vanilla, but somewhere in between.
This recipe uses cake mix for convenience, but still gives that classic red velvet taste.
Store cookies in an airtight container for up to a week.
