Some of you may remember the recipe I posted in July for Hawaiian Snowballs. Those were some yummy cookies made from cake batter. Again in desperate need for an after school snack idea, I’ve turned to my trusty cake batter cookie recipe again! This time I used a chocolate cake batter. I modified the recipe a little for what I had on hand so here it goes! ๐
Ingredients:
1 box of your favorite brand of chocolate cake mix
2 large eggs (or three egg whites)
1 tsp of baking powder
1/3 to 1/2 cup of vegetable oil (I’ve found this varies depending on the cake mix)
About 1/2 cup of powdered sugar in a small bowl
Preheat your oven to 350°. Mix all of the ingredients together (except for the powdered sugar).
Mix it well until it forms a nice dough.
Scoop up some of the dough and roll it between your hands to make a ball. It should be about the size of a walnut. Next you will roll the ball in the bowl of powdered sugar until is is completely covered. I’ve found if you swirl the ball in the bowl, then flip it and swirl some more it covers it nicely and makes the ball a little flatter which is perfect for baking!
Place the ball on the cookie sheet about 1-1.5 inches apart and bake for 10-12 mins.
When the cookies come out, they will be a little soft on top. That is okay! Let them cool on the cookie sheet for a few minutes and then move to a rack to cool.
If you would like to, sprinkle a little more powdered sugar over the top of the cooled cookies.
The best thing about these cookies is that they taste almost like a brownie! SOOOO yummy! Enjoy your treat!
