FUDGE CRINKLES (A GREAT 4 INGREDIENT CAKE MIX COOKIE)



Fudge Crinkles (A Great 4 Ingredient Cake Mix Cookie) image

These are chewy, fudgy, SUPER EASY cookies that you can probably make right now! I have watched these disappear time and again and everyone is always asking for the recipe. It is almost embarrassing to give it out, it is that easy :) Enjoy! (12/14/06: I wanted to add that Betty Crocker has updated this recipe by adding 1 tsp. vanilla extract, but I don't want to change the original recipe.) *12/22/07: Please see my tips at the end of the recipe! **12/23/08: Betty Crocker has now added a version of the same exact recipe in which the cookie dough balls are rolled in granulated sugar instead of powdered sugar. I've tried this and they're also very good.

Time 15m

Yield 30-48 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (18 1/4 ounce) box devil's food cake mix (Betty Crocker Super Moist suggested)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
confectioners' sugar or granulated sugar, for rolling

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Stir (by hand) dry cake mix, oil and eggs in a large bowl until dough forms.
  • Dust hands with confectioners' sugar and shape dough into 1" balls.
  • Roll balls in confectioners' sugar and place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes or until center is JUST SET.
  • Remove from pans after a minute or so and cool on wire racks.
  • *My Notes*:.
  • I have tried these with several different cake mix brands. They all come out good, but the Betty Crocker does come out the best.
  • I was having a problem with my cookies flattening while baking. This usually happens with the generic cake mix brands. You can play with your oven temp and try them on 375 to keep them from spreading. Adding more oil than called for will also cause the cookies to spread -- I wouldn't suggest it, they really don't need extra oil.
  • Another way to keep them nice and thick and to get the most "crinkled" or "crackled" look is to make them bigger. When I roll them at about 1.5 inches they look prettier.
  • And my best tip: My confectioners' sugar was consistently being absorbed by the dough. The last time I baked them, I rolled them into balls without rolling in the sugar and let them "dry" for a few minutes. Then I rolled them in sugar and baked. These came out with a nice coating of sugar that didn't disappear.

Tips:

  • Use a stand mixer or hand mixer to cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Gradually add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • Stir in the vanilla and almond extracts.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  • Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Scoop the dough by rounded tablespoons and roll into balls.
  • Roll the balls in powdered sugar.
  • Place the balls on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
  • Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still soft.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Conclusion:
