These cookies are amazing.  I made them for church a few weeks ago, and the girls asked for the recipe.  So I figured, I might as well put it here. I first tasted these back in December, back at my Betty Crocker Cookie Exchange Party when Holly brought them.  A few weeks ago, she made them as wedding favors — great idea!

This is all you need to make the cookies; the recipe is actually very easy, but you can pretend like it takes a lot more work.  It is just that tasty!

Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies
Recipe from Holly Groseth

Ingredients:

• 1 Package Devil’s Food Cake
• 1 Stick Butter
• 1 Package (8 oz.) Cream Cheese
• 1 Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 2 cups Chocolate Chips

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.  Mix together the softened cream cheese & butter (best if you use an electric mixer).  Add egg and vanilla.  Gradually mix in the cake mix.  Mix in chocolate chips (I used a spoon for this, it was not working with the electric mixer).

Spoon Tablespoon sized morsels onto greased cookie sheets (as per usual, I use parchment paper).

I use that awesome small ice cream scoop for making the perfect sized cookies.  It makes sure that each cookie is the same size!

Bake for 9 to 10 minutes.  Be careful not to overcook them, or they will be dry.

If you make these, people will be begging you for the recipe, trust me!  And yes – I did make a double batch.  I just knew how quickly they would be eaten!
