There is something wonderful about having a reliable recipe that comes together in just one bowl. These cake mix cookies are my absolute favorite when I need a sweet treat but do not want to spend all afternoon cleaning up the kitchen. They always turn out soft and perfectly sweet.

My biggest tip is to use a high quality cake mix because the flavor of your cookies will depend on it. You can easily change the flavor profile by picking your favorite cake mix box from the grocery store, so have fun experimenting with different combinations.

🧺 Ingredients

1 box cake mix
2 large eggs
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips

👩‍🍳Instructions

1
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
Pour the cake mix into a large mixing bowl.
3
Add the eggs, oil, and vanilla extract to the bowl with the cake mix.
4
Stir the mixture until a thick dough forms, then fold in the chocolate chips.
5
Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto your prepared baking sheet.
6
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the edges are just set.
7
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before moving them to a wire rack.

💡 Tips

Store these cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to five days to keep them soft. You can also freeze the baked cookies for a month if you want to save some for later.
