Cake Mix Cookies - Easy and Really Good!


One cake mix will make about 2 dozen cookies.  They are moist and soft and yummy!  Would you like the recipe?
                                                Triple Chocolate Andes Mint Cookies
1 Betty Crocker Triple Chocolate Cake mix
1/2 oil
2 eggs
1 bag of Andes Mint Chips (I used only half a bag)

Mix the cake mix, the oil, and the eggs with mixer until all mixed.  Then stir in the chips.  Preheat the oven to 350.  Put about 1 tablespoon rounded scoop of cookies about 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.  Bake for 8-10 minutes.

Just a heads up - although the directions said 8 to 10 minutes to bake, my turned out best at 7 minutes - but it could be my oven, so watch you first batch closely.

I have also used the Dark Chocolate cake mix with chocolate chips and strawberry cake mix with white chocolate chips.  Cookies made from scratch are still better, but this is an easy go to when you need cookies fast!!!

Another tip - I store them with a piece of bread in the container so they stay soft.

The BEST Homemade Strawberry Ice Cream

  Oh my. This is good. I like strawberry. A lot. But I don't usually choose strawberry ice cream if there are several flavors (like chocolate) available. I got this recipe from my daughter and IT IS GOOD! I would choose this! The Best Homemade Strawberry Ice Cream makes 3 cups (I have doubled it) Ingredients 1 1/2 cups strawberries,  hulled and diced 2 Tbsp honey 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1 tsp lemon juice 1 cup heavy whipping cream 1/2 cup half and half 1 tsp vanilla extract Instructions In large bowl mix strawberries, honey, sugar, and lemon juice. Allow to sit for about 15-20 minutes to give the strawberries some time to "weep." Mash the mixture with a potato masher, fork, or pastry cutter until there are no longer any large strawberry pieces (if you prefer a smooth ice cream, use a blender or food processor instead) Mix the strawberries, heavy cream, half and half, and vanilla extract. Stir just until combined. Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker, and follow you...
