Instructions

1. Prepare Dough:
   • In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, combine cream cheese, egg, cake mix, baking powder, and vegetable oil. Mix until a smooth dough forms.
   • Fold in white chocolate chips, if desired.
2. Chill Dough:
   • Cover the bowl and chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
3. Preheat Oven:
   • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a large baking sheet with a silicone liner or parchment paper.
4. Scoop & Arrange Dough:
   • Use a small cookie scoop to drop dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
5. Bake:
   • Bake in the preheated oven for 12-13 minutes, or until the cookies are set and the edges are lightly golden.
6. Cool:
   • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
