Whoops, time kinda flew right by me and I didn’t even realize it. That’s pretty much how this year has gone so far; I can’t believe we’re almost in May! I can’t wait for my DB to be done with his finals so that we can actually spend some relaxing time together. He’s been in beast study mode for the past week and will have his first final on Monday. Wish him luck! :]
Thanks for the well wishes, guys! It’s taken me almost two weeks to recover from that nasty cold, but I’ve finally kicked it to the curb. Being sick is such a miserable feeling and I wouldn’t want to wish that on anyone. Make sure to get plenty of sleep, stay hydrated, and take your vitamins!
How much easier can a cookie recipe get? I love using boxed cake mixes and doctoring them up to be something more than what they are supposed to be. This recipe from Cookies and Cups uses only 4 ingredients for a deliciously soft cookie. You can change the mix ins or even leave them out for a plain chocolate cookie.
Ingredients
- 1 box chocolate cake mix (I used dark chocolate--- even better!)
- 2 eggs
- 1/3 cup canola or vegetable oil
- 1 8 oz bag Reese's Minis (I used regular Reese's and chopped them up)
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350°
- Mix together the cake mix, oil and eggs until combined. Gently stir in the Reese's Minis.
- Roll the dough into tablespoon sized balls and bake for 8-9 minutes.

Thanks for posting! I made these last night for my Father’s birthday… they turned out FANTASTIC! And so, so, SO easy!
I did end up adding a few tablespoons of water to the batter, though. It got a bit crumbly.

I just made this recipe! It turned out very well. I made them with half and half white and milk chocolate chips instead of the Reese’s, and the effect was both pretty and tasty. =D Lots of compliments and hungry people attacking me.

I experimented with looking at your blog with my mobile phone and the structure doesnt seem to be correct. Might want to check it out on WAP as well as it seems most cellular phone layouts are not working with your web site.
