How to Make Cake Mix Chocolate Chip Cookies – Step by Step
Step 1: Make cookie dough
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line your cookie sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. This makes for even cookie baking and keeps the cookies from spreading too thinly on the pan. Combine the cake mix, oil, and eggs together in a large bowl, and mix by hand with a whisk until nice and smooth. Stir in the chocolate chips.
Step 2: Bake
Step 3: Serve
Cake Mix Chocolate Chip Cookies – Tips and Notes
- Line your sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. This will help your cake mix chocolate chip cookies to bake evenly and not spread too thinly. It also makes cleanup much easier.
- Use a cookie scoop to help scoop out the dough. When you use a cookie scoop, all the cookies will be the same size, so they will cook evenly.
- Sprinkle some coarse sea salt over the tops of your cookies as they are cooling. It gives a nice sweet and salty twist and looks pretty, too!
- For more crunchy cookies, you can let them bake for an extra minute or two.
- Store in an airtight container on the counter for up to four days.
