These fun and easy Grinch Crinkle Cookies are such a crowd pleaser! I am sure you have had the traditional chocolate ones and know how easy they are to make. These are just as simple and even easier using a cake mix. If this is the first year your kids are watching The Grinch you can make these before watching the movie and enjoy the as a snack during it!
The cake mix batter will be very thick, this is a good thing as you do NOT want to touch it with your hands when I has that much food coloring in it!
If you have a cookie scoop, I used my .5 T scoop, you can use that to keep it off your hands. Or use 2 tablespoons to roll them into balls. This is the hardest part of the entire process and it isn’t really hard at all!
