Yummy Chocolate Cookies

I’m visiting my mom this week and for some reason always like to bake treats while I’m home. I searched around in some old posts for this recipe. It’s one of my favorites and thought I’d share it again in case you missed it!

This are so good and super easy!

I used a cake mix! There are directions on the side of the box, but I adjusted it a bit for my taste.

  • 1 package of Dark Chocolate Cake mix
  • 1/2 cup melted butter (1 stick)
  • 1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon cream cheese (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup nuts (optional)
  • 1/2 cup raisins or dried cranberries (optional)

Directions

  1. Mix cake mix, butter and sugar together.
  2. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing between each egg.
  3. Add vanilla and cream cheese, mix well.
  4. Stir in chocolate chips, nuts and dried cranberries or raisins.
  5. Bake at 350° for 8-10 minutes.

    I am licking the beaters from a batch of the soft chocolate cookies right now! I couldn’t resist making cookies with pudding in them, plus they spoke to my sweet tooth. :)

    Those look really good. Thanks for sharing, especially the soft chocolate chip cookies. I love soft cookies. Once I made some chocolate chip cookies and didn’t put in enough flour so they didn’t come out as “cookies”. But a week later my brother asked my mom when I was going to “screw up” another batch of cookies!
