Hassle Free Delicious Cookies With Cake Mixes!
Did you try to make delicious cookie treats out of your regular cake mixes? Did you even think that it was actually possible to create these homemade great tasting cookies using the regular cake mixes in your cupboard?
Normally I really bake my cookies from scratch although I have recently begun to try out with cake mixes and see how I can turn them into delicious cookie treats.
From your ordinary cake mixes you actually have tons of options for really delicious cookies. So, if you’re busy and looking for shortcut ways to prepare those lovely cookies then cake mixes might be the answer to your baking needs.
Cookies Out of Cake Mixes are good for:
1) To help out amateur bakers have more confidence in their baking.
2) Help the busy mom and make things easier for when she bakes these goodies.
3) To make baking cookies a fun activity together with the kids.
4) To ease the budget. Cake mixes are sometimes on sale at %1 or even less. So it’s great for the budget.
5) If you want to make delicious cookies & you don’t have much time, then the cake mixes would help you get those lovely cookies at your table in no time at all.
Some great tips to help you with baking cake mix cookies:
1) Be sure to thoroughly read recipe and instructions before baking.
2) Do not overmix your dough.
3) Make sure that you drop your dough mixture onto cool sheets and not on warm ones.
4) Be sure to line your cookie/baking sheets using silicone mats or parchment paper.
5) Do not overbake cookies. The baked cookies must still be a little bit soft at the top but already set at the edges.
6) Allow cookies to cool completely prior to storing them so that they will not become soggy later on.
Here are a few tried and tested cake-mix cookies that I have baked and found really delicious:

Oatmeal Cookies
Chewy Choco Cookies
Here is a recipe you should try. Enjoy!
Chewy Choco Cookies
Ingredients:
1 box dark chocolate or milk chocolate cake mix (preferably use 1 of the brands that have the one cup of pudding mix already added to the mix. Use either Pillsbury or Betty Crocker.)
1 cup baking chocolate chips
Halfway in-between 1/3 and 1/2 cup oil
2 eggs
Instructions:
Mix together into a large bowl your cake mix, eggs and oil, using large mixing spoon. The oil must be halfway in between the 1/3 and 1/2 mark. I’ve found that any more is too oily and any less makes the cookies dry.After finishing mixing the ingredients, pour in 1 cup chocolate chips and mix again. Drop one inch balls onto cookie sheet.
Try to smooth out the balls by rolling them in between your palms before plopping them down for a more evenly baked, round cookie
Bake at 350 degrees, for 6-8 minutes. Cool for a few minutes before serving. Cookies initially will come out a bit puffy, but will sink down once cooled for a few minutes.
