Serves: 24 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 box chocolate cake mix
- 1/2 cup Nutella
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, Nutella, vegetable oil, and eggs. Mix thoroughly using an electric mixer or whisk until a smooth, consistent dough forms.
- Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula, distributing them evenly throughout the cookie dough.
- Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow room for spreading.
- Gently press down on each cookie dough ball with the back of a spoon to slightly flatten, creating a more uniform shape.
- Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers look slightly soft.
- Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes to firm up.
- Transfer the cookies to a wire cooling rack and allow them to cool completely before serving or storing.
- Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
Tips
- Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature for the best mixing consistency.
- Don't overmix the dough – stop mixing as soon as ingredients are just combined to keep cookies tender.
- Use a cookie scoop for uniform cookie sizes and even baking.
- For extra Nutella flavor, drizzle some melted Nutella on top of the cooled cookies.
- If you prefer softer cookies, slightly underbake them and let them finish setting on the baking sheet.
- For a fun variation, try adding chopped nuts or different types of chocolate chips.
- Allow cookies to cool completely before storing to prevent them from becoming soggy.
- Store in an airtight container with a piece of bread to help maintain moisture and softness.
