Preheat the oven to a temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Utilize non-stick cooking spray to adequately prepare each cup of a mini muffin pan.
Place the yellow cake mix into a medium-sized mixing bowl and whisk thoroughly to eradicate any lumps that may be present.
Introduce the softened butter and eggs to the cake mix, combining them with a hand mixer or manually until a thick and sticky dough is formed.
Employing a small cookie scoop or a measurement of 1/2 tablespoon, transfer a mound of the cookie dough into each prepared muffin cup. Subsequently, press down each mound with your fingers to ensure a level surface for the cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for a duration of 9 to 11 minutes. Upon removal, immediately loosen each cookie from the pan by tracing the edges with an offset spatula or knife.
When sufficiently cooled, press the center of each cookie to create a well, using a tart shaper or the end of a wooden spoon. Transfer the cookies to a cooling rack and allow them to cool completely.
