chocolate chip cookie bars made with cake mix

Once it’s cooled, transfer it to a platter, top it with some incredible chocolate frosting and colorful sprinkles, and slice it up. Go whip up some cookie dough, eat a spoonful, spread the rest in a pie plate or cake pan and bake it. It’s so much faster and easier to make bars and they taste just as yummy if not better, especially if you enjoy the chewy center of a cookie… which is why this Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake is so amazing. Sometimes my mom would form the dough into cookies, but she would also spread all of the dough in a jelly roll pan, bake it, and cut it into bars. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.

Spray a 9×13 pan and place your batter evenly throughout. Bake at 375 for 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Once the cake mix, oil, and eggs are mixed, toss in the chocolate chips and manually combine. Stir in 1-1/2 cups of chocolate chips and nuts. Talk about trading power at the lunch table! But I of course, would never give up something so delicious. In a large bowl, combine the first five ingredients. The cookies are amazing and so is the dough! My mom was super cool and let my siblings and I eat spoonfuls of dough and she would even reserve some balls of dough to pack in our lunch. While I’m currently obsessed with these Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Cookies, I used the cookie dough recipe from my childhood that my mom made more times than I can count. The cookie cake made from the bakery was good but as usual, I recently took the challenge to make my own. This Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake is so good though, I don’t think you or I will be anything but addicted to it! COOKIE CAKE RECIPEīack in the day they didn’t allow homemade goods to be shared with the class which is quite a shame because homemade is the best (okay, there are exceptions… like if you’ve got a bad recipe… or bad cook). We were eating cookie cake so often that I almost got sick of it. When I was in elementary school (long ago) cookie cakes were all the rage, especially for celebrating birthdays. Someone even once brought in a double layer cookie cake! Now that was insane. This easy, rich, and chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake is the perfect cake to make for your next birthday celebration!
