For our first sale last fall, I was searching for a chocolate cookie that would hold up in the heat. I found a recipe in the Betty Crocker Cookie Book for Chocolate Cookies. A simple name and a simple recipe. I usually make cookies from scratch, but this one sounded so easy and it was listed as a "most requested recipe". Well, it's a keeper for sure. Just ask Karla!
Stir together just three ingredients.
1 pkg Betty Crocker Devil's Food Cake Mix
1/3 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
Roll into 1-inch balls and roll in sugar.
Place about 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake 8 to 10 minutes in a 350 degree oven.
The recipe says it makes 4 dozen, but I get closer to 3 dozen.
Now, how easy is that! They are soft and chewy on the inside with a nice little crunch on the outside. I thought they deserved a better name, so now I just call them Tag Sale Cookies. And we've had them at every sale!
One gentleman told me I didn't need to sell furniture, I should just sell the cookies!
Enjoy!

I'm new here, but had to tell you that you can make all kinds of these cookies...just use a different cake mix...my favorite is Lemon, but you can do carrot cake, strawberry, etc...

Yay, I love simple recipes--this is perfect! It looks delicious as well! I am so glad you shared this @ Show & Share! Thanks so much!
okay...made these cookies for our lemonade stand this weekend. soooo good! thanks for sharing this recipe. it's a keeper!
I make these cookies at Christmas but I add chocolate chips in one batch, peanut butter chips in the next batch, nuts in another batch - and never even wash the bowl in between. I don't - however - roll mine in sugar - I just drop them on the sheet. I also make them with apple spice cake mix (with nuts and raisins) and carrot cake mix (with nuts and raisins). I did find out the hard way that you can't us the butter cake mix with chocolate chips to make faux toll house cookies - there's too much butter in the cake mix and they spread all over the pan.
