Ingredients

Gather these simple ingredients to make your Cake Mix Oreo Cookies:

Ingredients

  • 1 box of chocolate cake mix
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup of vegetable oil
  • 1 cup of crushed Oreo cookies
  • 1/2 cup of chocolate chips (optional)

Make sure to have all ingredients ready before you start baking.

Instructions

Follow these simple steps to create your delicious cookies:

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Mix Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, eggs, and vegetable oil. Mix until well combined.

Add Oreos

Fold in the crushed Oreo cookies and chocolate chips (if using) until evenly distributed.

Scoop and Bake

Using a cookie scoop, drop dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes.

Cool and Enjoy

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Once cooled, enjoy your delicious Cake Mix Oreo Cookies!

Storage Tips for Your Cookies

To keep your Cake Mix Oreo Cookies fresh and delicious, store them in an airtight container at room temperature. They can last for up to a week, although they are usually devoured much sooner! If you'd like to extend their shelf life, consider freezing them. Simply place them in a freezer-safe container, and they will stay good for up to three months.

When you're ready to enjoy a frozen cookie, just let it thaw at room temperature for a few minutes. You can also pop them in the microwave for a few seconds for that freshly baked warmth.

Pairing Suggestions

These cookies are delightful on their own, but you can elevate your dessert experience by pairing them with a scoop of ice cream or a glass of cold milk. The combination of warm cookies and cold ice cream creates a heavenly dessert that is hard to resist.

For a more indulgent treat, consider drizzling some chocolate or caramel sauce over the cookies before serving. This simple addition turns your cookies into a decadent dessert that will wow your guests and leave them asking for the recipe!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use other cake mix flavors? Absolutely! While chocolate cake mix is a classic choice, feel free to experiment with vanilla, red velvet, or even lemon cake mixes for a unique flavor profile. Each variation will give the cookies its own special twist.

What if I don’t have crushed Oreos? You can substitute crushed graham crackers or chocolate chips if you don't have Oreos on hand. While they won't provide the exact same flavor, they will still contribute to the cookie's deliciousness.
