Instructions

Preheat oven to 350F.

Line a baking tray with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

In a large bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, baking chips, vegetable oil and eggs. Beat with an electric mixer for 2 minutes, until a cohesive dough forms with no dry patches.

Use a cookie scoop to portion out dough in 2 Tablespoon-sized pieces, onto the baking tray, about 3” apart.

Bake for 8-10 minutes, until cookies have puffed up and cracks have formed.

Remove the cookies from the oven and immediately place one unwrapped chocolate on each cookie.

Allow the chocolate to warm up for 3-5 minutes, then use an offset spatula to spread the melted chocolate over the cookies. Allow the melted chocolate to set before storing or serving.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Mint Chip Magic 🍬
Crush additional Andes mints and sprinkle them on top of the cookies just after baking for an extra burst of mint flavor and visual appeal.
Chill for Perfect Spread 🧊
Refrigerate the cookie dough for 30 minutes before baking to prevent excessive spreading and create a more structured, bakery-style cookie.
Cake Mix Moisture Hack 💧
Add an extra tablespoon of vegetable oil to the cake mix to ensure ultra-soft, tender cookies that stay moist for days.
Mint Chip Distribution Trick 🍫
Fold the Andes mint baking chips into the dough by hand, ensuring even distribution and preventing them from sinking to the bottom of the cookies.
Perfect Baking Texture 🥄
Use a cookie scoop for uniform cookie sizes, and slightly flatten each dough ball before baking to achieve a professional, consistent look and texture.
