How to Make Yellow Cake Mix Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup (1 stick) softened margarine, 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter, 2 large eggs, and 1/2 cup water until light and fluffy.
  3. Gradually add 1 (15.25 ounce) box yellow cake mix, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  4. Fold in 1 cup chocolate chips and 1/2 cup toffee bits (or your favorite mix-ins!).
  5. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  6. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden brown.
  7. Let cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
