Cuisine: American
Serves: 24 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 box yellow cake mix
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup toffee bits
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats to prevent sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, empty the entire box of yellow cake mix. This will serve as the base for your cookies.
- Add vegetable oil and eggs to the cake mix. Use a hand mixer or stand mixer to blend the ingredients thoroughly until a smooth, consistent dough forms.
- Gently fold in the toffee bits and chocolate chips using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
- Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow room for spreading.
- Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are lightly golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes to set their structure.
- Transfer the cookies to a wire cooling rack to cool completely. The cookies will firm up as they cool.
- Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
Tips
- Use room temperature eggs for better dough consistency and smoother mixing.
- Don't overmix the dough - blend just until ingredients are incorporated to keep cookies tender.
- For uniform cookies, use a cookie scoop to ensure consistent size and even baking.
- If you like crispier edges, flatten the cookie dough balls slightly before baking.
- Let cookies cool completely on the wire rack to achieve the perfect texture.
- For extra indulgence, drizzle melted chocolate over cooled cookies.
- Store cookies in a single layer to prevent sticking and maintain their shape.
