Ingredients

  • 1 box yellow cake mix
  • 2 Tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • ¼ cup brown sugar {packed}
  • ½ cup butter {softened}
  • ½ cup butter flavor shortening
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1-1 ½ cups milk chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°.
  • Combine the yellow cake mix, cornstarch, all purpose flour and brown sugar in a large bowl. Whisk the ingredients together to combine.
  • Add the softened butter, shortening, eggs and vanilla extract to the dry mixture and cream together using a hand held {or stand} mixer. The dough will be a nice thick consistency. Add the milk chocolate chips and mix until evenly distributed.
  • Use a ¼ cup to measure out cookie dough onto a silicone mat {or parchment} lined baking sheet. Form the cookie dough mounds into round discs, baking 6-7 cookies at a time.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the cookies are baked through but not over baked. Remove from the oven and allow them to cool completely on the baking sheet. Continue baking the 2nd batch. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
