There is nothing better than having a cookie recipe that comes together in just one bowl. These cookies are a lifesaver when you are craving something homemade but do not have the time to bake from scratch.

My favorite thing about this recipe is how versatile it is. You can pick any flavor of cake mix you have in your pantry to create a whole new cookie experience every single time.

Ingredients

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

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, mix together the cake mix, eggs, oil, and vanilla extract until a soft dough forms.

  3. 3

    Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon.

  4. 4

    Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto your prepared baking sheet, keeping them about two inches apart.

  5. 5

    Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the edges are just set but the centers still look soft.

  6. 6

    Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for five minutes before moving them to a wire rack to finish cooling.

💡 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 up to three months. If you want a chewy texture, try not to overbake them because they continue to firm up as they cool.
