Ingredients
  

For the Cookies
  • 1 box chocolate cake mix providing that rich chocolate flavor
  • 2 large eggs to help bind everything together
  • ½ cup vegetable oil for that moist and chewy texture
  • 1 cup chocolate chips because more chocolate is always a good idea
  • ½ cup chopped nuts optional
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract adds a lovely depth of flavor
  • ½ teaspoon salt to enhance all the flavors

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment Paper

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, eggs, and vegetable oil. Mix until well combined.
  3. Step 3: Stir in the chocolate chips, chopped nuts (if using), vanilla extract, and salt until evenly distributed.
  4. Step 4: Drop rounded tablespoons of the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  5. Step 5: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are slightly cracked.
  6. Step 6: Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Once your cookies have cooled, store them in an airtight container. They will stay fresh at room temperature for about a week.
