You can make so many different kinds of cookies with just one recipe!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>I have a deep and abiding love for all recipes that start with a cake mix. Why? There are lots of reasons, but among the most important are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You can always count on the flavor of a cake mix recipe. You know exactly how it&#8217;s going to taste, and that flavor will <em>always<\/em> be consistent.<\/li>\n<li>Almost invariably, a cake mix recipe is going to produce a really moist baked good. That&#8217;s what it&#8217;s designed to do, and so you know you can count on anything you make with a cake mix to come out of the oven perfectly moist and stay that way for at least a few days.<\/li>\n<li>Cake mix recipes are usually simple with a short ingredient list, because so many of the &#8220;little&#8221; ingredients (like salt, baking soda, etc) are already included in the mix.<\/li>\n<li>The variety!! Thanks to a huge variety of cake mix flavors, you have so many flavor options to play around with right at your fingertips.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I&#8217;ve made a lot of cake mix recipes (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.somethingswanky.com\/red-velvet-scones\/\">scones<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.somethingswanky.com\/cake-batter-fudge\/\">fudge<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.somethingswanky.com\/funfetti-banana-bread\/\">banana bread<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.somethingswanky.com\/red-velvet-pancakes-cream-cheese\/\">pancakes<\/a>, and so much more!), but this cake mix cookie recipe is the one I come back to most often. I&#8217;ll link to some of my other favorite cake mix cookies at the bottom of this post.<\/p>\n<h3>PSSSSST!

If you want to make the cookies you see here, make these additions: 1) for the cake batter cookies use a yellow cake mix and add 1\/2 cup milk chocolate chips, 1\/2 cup white chocolate chips, and 1\/2 cup sprinkles. 2) for the chocolate PB chip cookies use a devil&#8217;s food cake mix and add 1\/2 cup milk chocolate chips and 1\/2 cup peanut butter chips.<\/li>\n<li>Try making these same cookies with a brownie mix! Simply sub a brownie mix for the cake mix and decrease the oil to 1\/4 cup. So good!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16066\" src=\"https:\/\/www.somethingswanky.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/DSC_3326.jpg\" alt=\"My favorite recipe for cake mix cookies.
