Mommy Bits

I am about to share with you the best cookie recipe ever. For someone like myself, that cannot cook, finding this recipe (thanks MOM!!) was the best thing that could have happened to my children and my co-workers.

I first made the recipe last year when my company had a bake-off. I was horrified. Did they know what they were doing? Since there wasn’t going to be a paramedic on hand, I turned to my mother for help. She gave me the recipe below and the confidence to not try and pass store-bought cookies off as my own. The results… I took first place in my heat of the cookie bake-off!!! Enjoy!

Here is the version for traditional chocolate chip cookies:

INGREDIENTS:
1 (18.25 ounce) package moist yellow cake mix*
1/3 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
2. Pour cake mix into a large bowl. Stir in the oil and eggs until well blended. Mix in chocolate chips. Drop dough by teaspoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheets.
3. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Remove from pan to cool on wire racks.

YIELDS:
12 servings

* What is great about this recipe is you can use it to make just about any variety of cookie. Personally I like using chocolate cake mix and then adding chocolate and peanut butter chips.
