Ingredients

Servings
  • 15.25 ounces chocolate fudge cake mix I used Betty Crocker Super Moist Chocolate Fudge

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or spray with cooking oil.
  2. In a large mixing bowl combine the cake mix and baking powder.
  3. Crack the eggs into a small bowl and lightly beat with a fork to break the yolks.
  4. Add beaten eggs, oil, milk and vanilla to the bowl with the cake mix. Mix well until their is no more dry ingredients and the dough forms. Dough will be sticky like brownie batter.
  5. Fold in a cup of chocolate candies into the cookie dough and mix until combined.
  6. Scoop out balls of dough using a small cookie scoop, about the size of a ping pong ball or 1 1/2 tablespoons per cookie.
  7. Leave two to three inches between each cookie dough ball as these cookies will spread as they bake.
  8. Press a few extra M&Ms into each cookie dough to decorate for a prettier final cookie. I like to use multiple candies in each cookie.
  9. Bake for 8-10 minutes, being careful not to overbake. Cookies will still be soft in the middle but cooked on the edges. Allow cookies to cool on the cookie sheet for 2 minutes then transfer to a wire rack. Enjoy!

Notes

  • This recipe was developed with a 15.25 ounce cake mix. Some of the cake mix brands have been decreasing the size to 13.25 ounces. If you use only 13.25 ounces of cake mix the recipe may not be as successful so check the box carefully.
