Hot Cocoa Cake Mix Cookies

 

Cake mix cookies are simple to make and you can dress them up in so many ways! This Hot Cocoa version features a Triple Chocolate Fudge mix and  Nestle Hot Cocoa and Marshmallow morsels. 

In a large bowl add the cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil and the bag of morsels. Use a hand mixer to combine. 

I use a cookie scoop to get nice uniform balls and I put 8 per baking sheet.  This helps them to bake more evenly. With this bag of morsels I got exactly 24 cookies, 3 sheets worth. 

They bake very quickly, only taking between 8 and 10 minutes.  I let them cool for a few minutes on the sheets and then move them to wire racks to cool completely. 

They are soft on the inside and chewy on the outside and go perfectly with a tall glass of milk!
