Easy Cake Mix Cookies- Chocolate Chip
"I frequently make these cookies for work pitch-ins & family get-togethers. They are always a big hit! I was given the basic recipe several years ago by a lady who showed up at my garage sale—and she wrote it down during our conversation about baking. I have perfected different varieties over the years. Please see my other recipes for how to make the following versions of this cookie: chocolate-chocolate chip, lemon, & sugar cookies. This is a really versatile recipe base—experiment!! These "chocolate chippers" will not taste like the Nestle Tollhouse variety...but have a delightful yummy taste of their own."
- Ready In:
- 13mins
- Ingredients:
- 4
- Yields:
-
24-36 cookies
- Serves:
- 24-36
ingredients
- 1 (18 ounce) box yellow cake mix
- 2 eggs
- 1⁄2 cup vegetable oil
- 6 ounces chocolate chips (semi-sweet or milk chocolate)
directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Stir ingredients in medium mixing bowl until blended (best to do right before you are ready to bake them- they flatten out more if you let the batter set).
- Spoon onto 2 un-greased cookie sheets (allow some space in between, they spread…a melon baller works great for this step).
- Bake for 8-10 minutes (depends on which cake mix you use & the oven -- I start looking at them through the glass around 6.5 minutes -- they will get a dull/cracked appearance on top when done).
- Allow the cookies to cool on the pan, or wait 1-2 minutes before moving to cooling racks. Cookies should be soft & chewy.

Horrible! Greasy, oily mess! The dough was so oily that the chips kept sliding out, even after they were baked. Are you sure it isn't supposed to be 1/4 cup of oil?? I'm very disappointed. I made a double batch and ended up wasting all that time and money.
