115g (½ cup / 1 stick) unsalted butter
-
50g (¼ cup) brown sugar
-
50g (¼ cup) caster sugar or granulated sugar
-
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-
1 large egg
-
140g (1 cup) plain or all-purpose flour
-
20g (¼ cup) cocoa powder
-
175g (1¼ cups) Devil’s chocolate cake mix
-
Pinch of salt
-
150g (1 cup) milk chocolate chips
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, and caster sugar until creamy and smooth.
-
Add the vanilla extract and egg, mixing until fully combined.
-
Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, and cake mix. Add a pinch of salt. Mix until a soft dough forms.
-
Fold in the milk chocolate chips evenly.
-
Scoop dough into tablespoon-sized balls and place on the baking sheet, spaced about 2 inches apart.
-
Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers still look slightly soft.
-
Let cool on the tray for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
For extra gooey cookies, slightly underbake and let them finish setting on the tray.
You can use semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips instead of milk chocolate.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
