Chocolate Cookies

This is a quick and easy recipe. Makes enough for you to share. The cake mixes are interchangeable in this recipe. I used a devil's food cake mix. I imagine a lemon box mix would be lovely. You mix the ingredients by hand. It gets quite gooey. The Cool Whip was thawed at room temperature. When shopping these days, you purchase what is available and buy a few extra. The supply chain emptiness lingers on.

Ingredients

Cake box mix, chocolate

Cool Whip, 8 ounces

Egg, 1

Powdered sugar, 1 cup

Preparation

Add the cake box, Cool Whip and egg to a large mixing bowl. Mix by hand until the Cool Whip is completely incorporated. Set aside. Place the powdered sugar into a smaller bowl. Remove any lumps, using your fingertips. For the next step, I used two teaspoons. One, I scooped up a rounded teaspoon of the cookie batter and pushed into the bowl of powdered sugar. The other teaspoon I used to lift up the powdered sugar and cover the rounded cookie dough and to roll the cookie. Then pick up the covered cookie and place on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 350 F for 12 to 15 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet. Carefully remove by sliding a metal spatula under each cookie. Will be soft on the inside. Makes 3 dozen.
