Cookie Thursday 6/12/25-Spice cake mix with caramel chips

Note to self, make sure that the cake mix has at least 15.25 oz of ingredients.

This week’s cookie was made with a spice cake mix and the mix ins were caramel chips.

I like these so much better than last week. They are reminiscent of gingerbread cookies but softer with more rise. The caramel chips also do some heavy lifting.

Same recipe as before. Box of cake mix, 3 eggs, 1/2 c melted butter, 1 tsp vanilla and the mix ins of choice. I thought caramel would go really well with the warm notes of the spice cake.

I just checked.

The cake mix that I used last week did have 15.25 oz of ingredients but when I poured it out of the box it seemed like very little and when I poured this week’s cake mix out of its box it seemed so much more. And these cookies raised more as well.

The output was the same. 4 full cookie sheets, 12 cookies per sheet. For a total of 48 cookies.

Hmm.

I guess my taste is more to the spicy side and less to the sweet side.

Good to know.
