We found a great deal on a case of cake mixes last year so we bought a case and got a little tired of cake. We found this real easy cookie recipe using cake mix.

Quick Chocolate cookies 

1 chocolate cake mix (2-layer size)
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
 2 eggs
1/2 cup miracle whip salad dressing.

 Heat oven to 350. Mix all ingredients in a large bowl with an electric mixer until blended' Batter will be thick. Drop by rounded teaspoonful on greased cookie sheet bake 10 to 12 min until edges are lightly browned. You can substitute powdered eggs for real eggs. 2T of dry egg powder + 1/4 cup water for 1 large egg. Mix the egg powder and water together until well blended then add to recipe.
