These cake mix chocolate chip cookies are soft, chewy, and ready in under 30 minutes with just 6 ingredients. No mixer, no chill time, just a box of cake mix, chocolate chips, and a craving for something sweet. Perfect for a quick treat or an easy dessert win.
Preheat the oven to 350℉ and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, add the cake mix, butter, eggs, vanilla and brown sugar and stir until just combined. Then add in the chocolate chips and mix until the batter comes together and you see no more dry ingredients.
Using a cookie scoop to make sure all your cookies are the same size, scoop the cookie dough onto your prepared baking tray, leaving about 2” between dough balls.
Bake at 350℉ for 8-10 minutes until you see cracks on the top of the cookies, being careful not to overbake them. Let sit on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, then remove from the baking tray and let cool.
