Ingredients:
- 1 box chocolate cake mix
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 and 2/3 cups butterscotch chips
- 1/2 cup peanut butter chips
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)
Instructions:
-
Preheat the Oven:
- Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that your cookies bake evenly to perfection.
-
Prepare the Dough:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, eggs, and vegetable oil. Mix until well combined and you have a smooth dough.
-
Add the Chips:
- Now, it’s time to add the star ingredients – the butterscotch chips and peanut butter chips. But before you do, take a moment to taste a handful of chips to ensure they’re just the right flavor you desire. Once confirmed, add them to the dough mixture.
-
Optional Nuts:
- If you’re opting for an extra crunch and nutty flavor, add in the chopped pecans to the dough. This step is entirely optional but highly recommended for that added texture.
-
Mix Well:
- Mix all the ingredients together until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough. This ensures every bite is bursting with flavor.
-
Shape the Cookies:
- Using a teaspoon, drop spoonfuls of dough onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure to leave enough space between each cookie to allow for spreading during baking.
-
Bake to Perfection:
- Place the cookie sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the centers of the cookies are set and the edges are lightly golden brown.
-
Cool and Serve:
- Once baked, allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 2 minutes to let them firm up. Then, carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Enjoy:
- Serve these Yummy Chocolate Lennie-Chip Cookies with a glass of cold milk, hot cocoa, or your favorite beverage. Indulge in the rich flavors and crunchy texture, and savor each delicious bite!
