How to make cookies out of cake mix
The Best Devil’s Food Cake Mix Cookies!
These double chocolate chip cookies are my secret weapon! Whenever I’m in a pinch to make a dessert for either my family or to take to a gathering, I choose these. They are soft and rich and SO chocolatey. And the secret behind these cookies is that all it takes is a box of devils food cake mix and a few other ingredients.

I remember my mom sharing this recipe with me when I was around twelve. It was a fairly simple recipe to begin baking with. I memorized the recipe real quick, “half a cup of oil and two eggs.” I’ve since added an extra pinch of salt and they’ve only gotten better!

First you’re going to need these 5 ingredients: a devil’s food cake mix, oil- I like to use canola, 2 eggs, salt, and chocolate chips. Thats it!
Once you’ve gathered those ingredients, dump the bag of cake mix into a medium size mixing bowl. I like to add the salt after this step and stir into the dry mix to combine evenly. This gives it a little extra something special, bringing out the rich and chocolatey decadent taste.
After that you simply add the oil and 2 eggs at the same time. Mix thoroughly so that all the egg disappears into the batter. Finally, sprinkle one cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips into the mixture and stir to combine.
Now you’re left with a truly chocolatey gooey cookie dough that just needs to be scooped into about 20 cookies. Bake at 375 degrees for around 12-14 minutes.

Once you pull the cookies out of the oven, let them cool on the pan for around 5 minutes before transferring them to a plate or a wire rack for more cooling.
