Chocolate Cake Mix Cookies for the WIN!

If you love thick, pillowy cookies and think chocolate cake is the world’s greatest invention, you’re going to fall head over heels for these gorgeous Chocolate Cake Mix Cookies. Made with a box of cake mix, they’re part cake, part cookie, and 100% delicious.

Soft, fudgy and completely moreish.

Ever since I made my Cake Mix Cookies last year, I’ve been obsessed with them. Do you know what they taste like? Milk Bar’s famous Confetti Cookie. And I love that I can almost get a taste of one of my favourite New York bakeries at home.

And now I know how amazing it is when you add a boxed cake mix into your cookie batter, I can’t stop. So here’s my second cake mix creation. This time in the form of chocolate on chocolate.

These Chocolate Cake Mix Cookies are super thick and soft. The middle is a little fudgy, with plenty of gooey chocolate chips thrown in for good measure. They taste like a really good chocolate cookie but there’s something different about them that you can’t quite put your finger on.

Welcome to the wonderful world of baking with boxed cake mix.

I’d even go as far to say these Chocolate Cake Mix Cookies are part cookie, part cake and even part brownie. Especially when they’re fresh out of the oven. They just about melt-in-your-mouth.

If you have a packet of chocolate cake mix in your cupboard, can I tempt you to make these cookies instead of chocolate cake next time your chocolate craving hits?

TIPS FOR MAKING PERFECT CHOCOLATE CAKE MIX COOKIES

These cookies are made in very similar way to a regular batch of chocolate cookies.
We use melted butter in this recipe, so there is no need to soften the butter and you don’t need an electric mixer. This recipe also doesn’t require you to chill the dough.
I’ve used a mix of brown sugar and caster sugar in this recipe. If you don’t have caster sugar where you live, you can use granulated sugar instead.
Once you have made the cookie dough, scoop out balls of dough (approximately 1.5 tablespoons each) and roll them using your hands. If the dough is too sticky to use your hands, just use a cookie scoop.
I tested this recipe using Betty Crocker’s Devil’s Chocolate Cake Mix. Results may vary slightly depending on the brand and type of cake mix you use.
