Notes
Nutrition
Can you use any type of cake mix?
Yes just about any brand of cake mix will work. I’ve tried most of the brands found in my local stores (Betty Crocker, Pillsbury, Duncan Hines, etc) plus some generic or other name brand mixes. These currently run about 15.25 ounces per box. If your boxed cake mix is more than 18 ounces in size you will notice that the cookie dough becomes thick and may take a bit longer to bake properly.
Can I use something else in place of the chocolate chips?
Yes. You can leave them out or swap the chocolate chip for another type of baking chip. Try white chocolate, milk or dark chocolate or even butterscotch chips in place of the semi sweet chocolate chips.
