  • Author: Sophie

  • Yield: Approximately 24 cookies 1x

Description

These Devil’s Food Cake Cookies are rich, fudgy, and easy to make using a boxed cake mix. Loaded with chocolate chips, they offer an irresistible chocolaty treat that combines the texture of a cake with the convenience and form of a cookie.


Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 (13.25 ounce) Devil’s Food cake mix

Wet Ingredients

  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs

Add-ins

  • 1.5 cups chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 375˚F (190˚C) to ensure it reaches the right temperature before baking the cookies.
  2. Mix Batter: In a large bowl, combine the Devil’s Food cake mix, vegetable oil, and eggs. Use an electric mixer or mix by hand until the batter is smooth and fully incorporated.
  3. Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold the chocolate chips into the batter by hand, making sure they are evenly distributed without overmixing.
  4. Portion Cookies: Scoop rounded tablespoonfuls of dough and place them on a baking sheet, spacing each cookie about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
  5. Bake Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 9-10 minutes, or until the cookies are set and have lost their shiny appearance, indicating doneness.
  6. Cool Cookies: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 2-3 minutes to firm up, then transfer them to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For softer cookies, do not overbake; they should be set but still slightly soft in the center when removed from the oven.
  • You can substitute semi-sweet chocolate chips with dark, milk, or white chocolate chips based on preference.
  • Make sure to space the cookies evenly on the baking sheet to prevent them from merging during baking.
  • Use parchment paper or a silicone baking mat on the baking sheet to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.
  • Store cooled cookies in an airtight container to maintain freshness for up to 5 days.
