How to Make Easy Chewy Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
- In a separate bowl, combine the powdered sugar and cocoa powder.
- Roll 1 tablespoon of cookie dough into a ball. Roll the ball in the powdered sugar mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
- Place the coated cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft. (Do not overbake!)
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
