Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 (15.25 oz) box of white or yellow cake mix
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) to prepare for baking the cookies.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, vegetable oil, and eggs. Mix by hand using a whisk until the batter is smooth and uniform. Then, fold in the chocolate chips evenly throughout the dough.
- Shape Cookies: Using a rounded tablespoon, drop dollops of dough onto cookie sheets lined with parchment paper or silicone baking mats, spacing them to allow for spreading during baking.
- Bake Cookies: Place the cookie sheets into the preheated oven and bake for 9 to 11 minutes. Though the cookies might not look fully baked when you remove them, this is expected. Let them cool on the cookie sheets for 1 to 2 additional minutes to finish setting.
- Cool and Store: Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, store the cookies in an airtight container to maintain freshness. Enjoy your delicious cookies!
Notes
- Using parchment paper or silicone mats helps prevent sticking and promotes even baking.
- These cookies may appear slightly underbaked when removed from the oven but will set while cooling.
- You can substitute chocolate chips with nuts, toffee bits, or other mix-ins for variety.
- For a slightly healthier option, consider using a reduced-fat cake mix and oil substitute.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
