Light And Chewy Cake Cookies Recipes

LEMON CAKE MIX COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
• In a large bowl, stir together cake mix, eggs, oil, and lemon extract until well-combined.
• In a separate bowl, pour powdered sugar.
• Drop a teaspoonful of cookie dough into the powdered sugar. Roll the dough around until completely covered.
• Place cookies on a cookie sheet.
• Bake for 6 to 9 minutes. Expect the tops to be cracked and crinkly, the bottoms to be slightly brown, and the center soft and chewy.
• Let the cookies cool completely on the cookie sheet before serving. Enjoy!

CAKEY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and baking soda; set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the butter with both sugars; beat on medium speed until light and fluffy. Reduce speed to low; add the salt, vanilla, and eggs. Beat until well mixed, about 1 minute. Add flour mixture; mix until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
• Drop heaping tablespoon-size balls of dough about 2 inches apart on baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
• Bake until cookies are golden around the edges and set in the center, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from oven, and let cool on baking sheet 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack, and let cool completely.

CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Mix the butter and sugar together using an electric whisk or hand whisk until very light and fluffy, then beat in the egg and vanilla. Fold in the flour, baking powder, chocolate and ¼ tsp salt as quickly as you can. Don't overwork the dough as this will toughen the cookies.
• For the best flavour, leave the mixture overnight: either cover the bowl and chill, or roll the mixture into balls and chill.
• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line two baking sheets with parchment. Divide the mixture into balls, the craggier the balls, the rougher the cookies will look. If you want to give the dough more texture, tear the balls in half and squidge them lightly back together. Space out evenly on the baking sheets, leaving enough space between each to allow for spreading.
• Bake the fresh cookies for 8-10 mins and the chilled ones for 10-12 mins, or until browned and a little crisp at the edges but still very soft in the middle - they will harden a little as they cool. Leave to cool on the tray for a few minutes before eating warm, or transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Will keep for three days in an airtight container.
