Main Ingredients

  • 1 box chocolate cake mix
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar optional, for rolling

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips gently to ensure even distribution.
  • Using a cookie scoop or tablespoons, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each.
  • If desired, roll each ball in powdered sugar.

Baking

  • Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes until the edges are set and the centers are slightly underbaked.
  • Allow to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

To ensure perfect cookies, avoid overmixing after adding chocolate chips and start checking baking time a minute early. Chill dough for thicker cookies and try different types of chocolate chips for variety.
