Double Chocolate Cake Mix Cookies
Cookies made from a cake mix – so rich in chocolate flavor and soft on the inside. So delicious that you can’t get enough of it.
Whether you’re a Mom, someone who loves cooking or baking or a foodie, you can’t get enough of buying in bulk – may it be ingredients or just food to munch on.
Double Chocolate Cake Mix Cookies
- Difficulty: easy

-
- 1 tbsp vegetable or canola oil
-
- ½ tsp vanilla extract

- 1 box chocolate cake mix
- 1 ½ cup chocolate chips
- In a bowl, beat butter until fluffy (about 3 minutes).
- Add egg, coffee mixture, oil and vanilla. Mix until well combined.
- Gradually add the cake mix until well incorporated.
- Add in chocolate chips.
- Place in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up or up to overnight.
- Preheat your oven to 350 F. Prepare baking sheet(s) lined with parchment paper.
- When the dough is firm, take out from the fridge. Scoop out about 1 & 1/2 tbsp and form into balls. Place on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes. Remove from the oven and leave on the pan for 2 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool further.
After baking these cookies, I just wanted to stuff everything in my mouth. They are so good that you’d never get enough of them. They are like cake, brownies and cookies in one. They are absolutely delicious! And admit it, it’s not complicated.

Ever since I made cookies using funfetti cake mix, I’ve been obsessed! Holy cow, they are so easy and better tasting than those cookies you can buy at the grocery store with frosting on them. I have never tried anything other than the funfetti, but these chocolate cookies look amazing! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
Jhuls
Oh! The funfetti cookies sound adorable. I wanna try that next time. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by. xx

Jamie @ Medium Sized Family
I never would have thought to use a cake mix in cookies! That would be a great way to use a cake mix during a pantry challenge.
Jhuls
This is my first time to use a cake mix, too. And I am very much happy with the results. Thanks for stopping by. 🙂

Cake mix cookies are fabulous. They are so quick and easy to make. I love the addition of coffee in your version:)
Jhuls
Thank you, Lily. I didn’t know that cake mixes could turn into something as delicious as these cookies. Have a lovely weekend. 🙂

Hey Jhuls. YUM. I think eating all of the cookies, at one time, might be a bad idea. :))) Thanks for sharing with us at Fiesta Friday #86. Happy FF!
