Chewy Chocolate Cakemix Cookies

Not bad for a $100 camera!

Sometimes I get overwhelming cravings for chocolate. Not just any chocolate, but warm, gooey chocolate derived desserts. Ladies, you know what I'm talking about!

My first instinct was to look for a box of brownie mix, but instead found a box of cake mix. Now, I'm not usually a boxed mix kind of girl, but this was an emergency and I needed chocolate, and I needed it fast!

Thankfully, I came across this recipe at Kirbie Cravings (coincidence!?).
This recipe made about 2 dozen cookies.

Prep time: 5 minutes
Oven time: 8-10 minutes
Ingredients:
  • 1 chocolate cake mix
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • halfway in between 1/3 and 1/2 cup oil
  • 2 eggs
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl mix together eggs, oil, and cake mix. Add chocolate chips. The dough will be very stiff! Drop by rounded tablespoon onto a greased cookie sheet, or use a cookie scoop (one of my favorite kitchen tools). Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until it passes the toothpick test.

I ate a warm cookie straight from the oven draped over the top of a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Chocolate emergency, averted!
