Cake Mix Cookies Recipe

[shybeth03]

hey, can i cook this in the microwave?

[TaylorSwifBiggestFAn]

I have a HUGE QUESTION why dont my cookies puff up the first batch were high and beautifull the rest were flaT!

[usafireandrescue]

@TaylorSwifBiggestFAn Hi! Thank you for watching. Did the second batch that went flat come from the same mixture as the first batch or was it from a different time you made it? Sometimes overmixing the batter and incorporating too much air can make the final product flatter. If the flat cookies were from the same mixture as the high cookies, it might have something to do with the temperature of the batter and chilling it might help. Thank you again for stopping by! Hugs...

[fetishisticrose]

@TaylorSwifBiggestFAn Chill the dough between batches and you need to cool the pan down...after the 1st batch....in my opinion.....just run the faucet over the backside ...till the pan is cool to the touch ....then load more chilled batter to bake and repeat. I have found a cold cookie sheet works great for all types of cookies.

[hughesjr]

Great recipe. I use 1/4 cup of canola oil, 1/2 cup egg beaters, 1/2 cup oatmeal and 1/4 cup white bean puree

[pinaymod]

Sounds like a great recipe! And aww the bloopers at the end are so endearing. Subscribed! :)

[YTfancol]

Love the recipe, the ingredients and how easy it is to mix them all together.

So today,

Oven : Check

Cookie tray with parchment paper: Check

Safety net to receive the cookies after their quick makeover in the oven : Check

Cost of the Ingredients : A few dollars.

Cost of the safety net : PRICELESS !!

LOL !!!

[usafireandrescue]

@YTfancol ROFL ROFL! Love it!!! :-)  Always need a safety net!

[VolleyBallGirl4real]

Also!! What do you preheat the oven to?

[usafireandrescue]

@VolleyBallGirl4real Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and bake for about 8 - 10 minutes. Thanks again for stopping by. Have a beautiful day! Hugs...

[VolleyBallGirl4real]

Would canola oil work for this?

[usafireandrescue]

@VolleyBallGirl4real Hi! Thanks for watching! Yes, canola oil will work great in this recipe! Hope you will like it. Hugs...

[usafireandrescue]

@hotdog1997 Hi! Thank you so much for watching and writing. I've never used a homemade cake mix in this recipe before, but it should work. Please let me know how it turns out. Thank you again for watching. Hugs...

[lilblonde111]

thank you ! I made carrrot cake cookies and they were delicious.

[raficsulejmanovic]

TQ for the tips. You are very sweet!

[usafireandrescue]

@jadeforever23 Hi. Thanks for watching! Yes, foil will work just fine. I usually use the non-stick foil. If you don't have non-stick, you may want to grease the top of the foil to prevent any sticking. Hope you like these cookies. Have a beautiful day my friend!

[minorot]

Thank goodness you weren't burned!!! I use a jelly roll pan and parchment paper to avoid those disasters.

[usafireandrescue]

@minorot Hi. Thank you so much for watching and writing in! I'm always dropping stuff, lol, and these cookies slid right off. Love your idea of the jelly roll pan!! Thank you my dear friend. Hope all is well your way. Have a beautiful weekend! Hugs...

[SantaFishes101]

WHY DID YOU JUST BAKE THE DECLORATION O- oh, those are good cookies, good thing we had the framed parchment paper!! lol jk

[prophecy505]

u are sexy

[MearickLee]

I was wondering about making cookies with cake mix as I had some I wanted to use up for Christmas. Will certainly try it, thank you!

[usafireandrescue]

@MearickLee Hi Mearick Lee! Thanks so much for stopping by. I hope you will like this recipe. It's so easy to make and yummy! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Hugs...

[conichka6]

Great quick recipe. thanks for sharing the bloopers, made a dreary day a little better.

[usafireandrescue]

@conichka6 Hi! Thank you so very much for watching and for the kind words. I truly appreciate it. Wishing you and yours a beautiful and blessed Holiday! Hugs...

[KissHope]

I was leary of trying this type of recipe but was very surprised at just how good the cookie is. I use yellow cake mix and choc chips. Still a bit of a snob when I want an extra special choc chip cookie since discovering Alton Brown's "crispy" choc chip cookie recipe. Sooooo good. 

[usafireandrescue]

@KissHope Hi. Thanks so much for watching and writing in! I love the way you made them... yellow cake mix and choc chips! Sounds wonderful. If you like Lemon, these are great with lemon cake mix and lemon icing! I've got to look up Alton's "crispy" choc chip recipe... everything he makes is amazing! :-) Have a beautiful weekend. Big hugs to you and yours...

[KissHope]

@usafireandrescue

Greetings,

If you do try Alton's recipe do yourself a favor and buy the Gheradelli choc chips, indeed a bit more expensive but this cookie is just that goodt puts the whole thing way over the top. Btw just made a batch of lemon drop cookies and if you have made from scratch you know it's difficult to get an abundance of lemon taste and you can only use so much juice/zest til it gets bitter . :Tip: use a 1/4 tsp - 1/2 tsp lemon aid dry mix for 1.5 dz amazing!

[usafireandrescue]

@KissHope Hi my dear friend! Oh I love ghirardelli choc chips. Have you ever tried their triple chocolate brownie mix (I usually buy it at Costco)? OMG, those things are to die for! Best brownies ever! :-) Your lemon drop cookies sound awesome too. Thank you for the wonderful tip! I love this time of year and all the baking and goodies. Talk to you soon. Big hugs...

[anythingnew]

I eat baking soda for breakfast.

[babygizmoe]

you kinda remind me of dolly

[usafireandrescue]

@babygizmoe LOL!  Thank you for watching and writing in. Have a beautiful day. Hugs...

[Whitaby]

I just finished making cookies almost exactly like this, using the same cake mix. Except I used 1/2 cup of butter instead of vegetable oil. And I used peanut butter chips too. Then I sprinkled a chocolate bar on top of them. Haven't tried them yet but excited to! :)

[usafireandrescue]

@Whitaby Hi! Thank you so much for writing in. Yummy... I bet the peanut butter chips and sprinkled with a chocolate bar made these cookies even better! Sounds absolutely delicious! Thank you for sharing. I might have to try that next time. Hope you are doing great. Have a beautiful day. Hugs to you and yours...

[jwpolar]

Does it taste more like a cake or cookie? It seems like it would taste more like a cake and it looks like it too :P

[usafireandrescue]

@jwpolar Thank you so much for writing in... this was an excellent question! :-) It's kind of hard to describe. I think it tastes more like a soft cookie, because it's not fluffy like a cake or real hard like a regular cookie. Thank you again for commenting! Take care... hugs!

[simis7]

The recipe is good but I made changes...

2 eggs

1/4 melted butter

1/4 oil

add some nuts and chocolate chips

the cookies came out really tasty! TRY!

I have a unsalted butter,premium cookie premix, chocolate chips, flower sweets and cookie cutter can u teach me how to make cookies using these ingredients please ??? T_T Im so stupid i cant bake it.... And can i use my hands or a spatula to stir the flour??? Thanks~!

[KIMBURLEExMAHREE]

i'm sorry i wrote cheese cheese i meant to say cream cheese. don't mind me it happens when your a new mom.

[usafireandrescue]

Ha ha, no problem at all. I definitely need to try your version! Sounds so good! I love tweaking and changing up recipes! Happy Holidays and Happy New Year to you and your family! Much love!

[usafireandrescue]

Hi! How are you? Hope you are doing great!  Thanks so much for watching and writing in! Your version sounds really good. Was that 8 oz of cream cheese? Everything is better with cream cheese! :-) Thank you so much for sharing! Yummy! Happy Holidays to you and yours! Hugs!!!!

[scoobzmyman]

I made these and they were GREAT! I highly suggest pillsbury cake mix though...I even added choc chips and walnuts.... OMG... so so good! I always give some of my baked goods to company as they drop in and everyone wanted the recipie.

[usafireandrescue]

Hi scoobzmyman! Thank you so much for watching and letting me know how these turned out! This is wonderful! I usually use Betty Crocker mixes, but next I'm definitely going for the Pillsbury. Mmmm... choc chips and walnuts? That sounds delicious! I can't wait to make these again and try your suggestions! Happy Holidays and thanks again!

[pengyou1909]

Hi~I'm Korean~Nice to see you*^^*

[gogirl929]

CAN U USE ANY KIND OF OIL

[usafireandrescue]

Hi gogirl929. How are you? I'm sorry I just now found your post. For this recipe, I would use vegetable/canola oil. I think that would work best. Hope you can try this recipe... it's so easy and yummy! Have a wonderful weekend! Hugs!

[ixWONDERLANDxi]

I love the bloopers at the end you are too cute.

[usafireandrescue]

Thank you so much for the sweet words. I really appreciate it. I can't do a video without messing up, ha ha ha. Hope you are well! Have a beautiful weekend! Hugs...

[slboerum]

Thanks for posting this recipe, I used to make them years ago and lost the recipe - so easy though you'd think that would be impossible huh? My favorite version was with white cake mix and add ins - 8 oz. coconut and 6 oz. white/regular chocolate chips.

[usafireandrescue]

Hi! How are you? Thank you so much for watching and commenting! LOL over losing the recipe. I do that all the time. :-) I really like your cake mix version! I never thought of adding in coconut and chocolate chips! Oh wow! I need to try that! I'm starting my Wal-Mart list as I type this, LOL. :-) Thank you for sharing! Great, great, great idea! Have a wonderful day! Hugs to you and yours...

[LMN1968]

I may try these, today. We like easy treats!

You outtakes always make me laugh. :)

[usafireandrescue]

How are you? I hope all is well! I hope you can try these. They are incredibly easy to make... almost too easy! If you like lemon, you should try this with a lemon cake mix and then drizzle lemon icing on them! Oh my goodness... so good! Have a most beautiful day! Hugs!!!

[SeoulDriver]

I was always intimidated by baking. Seeing how easy it is to make (thanks to you!) Im going to give it a shot~!

[usafireandrescue]

Hi SeoulDriver! How are you? Thank you so much for watching! Baking is fun and easy... you will do great at it! Just be careful not to drop your cookies like I did, ha ha ha!

:-) Hope all is well with! Have a beautiful day! Hugs...

[JustineFromQueens]

Easy recipe, and even easier laughs...Thanks a lot. This video made my day ;)

[usafireandrescue]

LOL Hi JustinerFromQueens! Thank you for watching and posting such a sweet comment! I really appreciate it! I lost my cookies in this video! HA HA HA! I didn't want to add that part, but Mom thought it was funny.  My face was red... still is. Hope you have a beautiful day! Hugs to you and yours!

[PrettylindaCp]

and then add ice cream in the middle YUM

[usafireandrescue]

Hi PrettylindaCp! How are you? I really like your idea of adding the ice cream! Yummy!!! I will have to try that next time! A warm cookie with a scoop (or two, LOL) of ice cream.... mmmmmmm :-) Hugs to you!

[BunnyDrops]

Hiya Amy... Yes I see what you mean by the parchment paper being slippery. This video of yours gives a whole new meaning to cookie recipes that call themselves Drop Cookies! I will think of you whenever I see a drop cookie recipe... you always make me smile!

[usafireandrescue]

LOL, I really lost my cookies on that one, huh? HA HA HA. I didn't want to add that part to the video, but the camera woman (Mom) thought it was funny. I was embarrassed, LOL. "Drop" cookies! ROFL ROFL.... that's so funny! I never thought of that! :-) Thank you for watching and commenting! Your comments make me smile! :-) Big hugs to you and yours!!!

[atmoslove]

Nice Bloopers

[usafireandrescue]

Ha ha ha... I can't do a video without messing up somehow or laughing through the whole thing. I didn't want to put in the part where I dropped the cookies, but Mom over-ruled, LOL. Oh well... as one dear friend said, "I lost my cookies!" HA HA HA! Thank you for watching! :-)

[fezan84]

LOL at the cookie drop. Did you have to make another batch or did you have leftover batter?

I like how easy & cheap this recipe is. Considering the price of the ingredients, when cake mix is on sale for $1/box the whole batch of cookies probably ends up totaling less than $2.50. Good stuff!

[usafireandrescue]

Hi Fez! How are you? LOL over me losing my cookies! Thank goodness I had left over batter! I was really careful the second time around. If you like lemon, a lemon cake mix is great to make cookies! Then top it with lemon icing! Yummy!

Do you still do acrobatics? How long did it take you before you could do those flips/moves? I soooo wish I could do that stuff! :-) Have a beautiful day!

[fezan84]

I do still practice -- it's a great way to burn off all the calories from youtube recipes, haha! I'm planning to release my most recent footage this winter, but may upload a video or two from 2008. The flips take only a few weeks to learn, surprisingly! If you have access to a trampoline, it is a great low-risk learning tool and also great exercise. I bet you'd be backflipping in two weeks! Then, you could bake some cookies or a casserole in mid-air!

Thanks again for the recipes and tips!

[usafireandrescue]

Hi Fez! I can't wait to see more of your videos! Would this be a trampoline with the harness thingy on you? I used to have a trampoline (not with the harness though), but I never did a flip. I always wanted to try, but never got around to actually doing it. Fun when you get two jumpers and get it timed right to catapult you high into the air! Fun times, LOL. I do wish I could do those backflips! I'd really lose my cookies then, HA HA HA! Hugs to you!

[fezan84]

The standard backyard trampoline you mentioned is exactly the one I'm talking about :D. No harnesses or anything. You first learn how to fall onto your back with complete confidence, then one day you just throw your head back, tuck your knees in, and hope for the best! Oh yes, and it is definitely fun to have two other people jump at the same time and catapult you up, though I tend to have bad luck and fly completely off LOL!

[usafireandrescue]

Wow... no harness? I'd be scared to try it for the first time. Have you ever gotten injured from the flips? I know what you mean about being catapulted... I've flown off a trampoline many times. It was still fun though. My fabric on the trampoline eventually got old and tore. I really miss the trampoline. It was great exercise!

[fezan84]

I have been injured a good number of times, but that's because I'm very reckless hahaha -- it wasn't on backflips or frontflips, but on more advanced stuff. One of the good things I had going for me were friends who would "spot" me by putting their hands on my lower back in case I was going to fall. All gymnastics gyms have teachers who can spot you when trying new moves. Never hurts to be safe!

[chefcommons]

Nice work, we liked your video very much so we embedded it on ChefCommons w/ link back and reference to Youtube. (Let us know if you don't wish for it to be featured)
