You dont have to add the water in the cake mix? Its very thick and sticky..?
Heidi says
Hi Samantha ~ no… you will not add any water. Chill the dough in the refrigerator at least 15 minutes prior to baking. Hope that helps! 😉
Laura says
How many cookies does this recipe yield?
Heidi says
Hi Laura ~ approximately 2 dozen, give or take. 😉
Jen says
Just made these and they are huuuuge! And delicious!! :-). I think I need to bake them a little longer next time because they turned out a little underdone (I baked them about 12 minutes, but they were big so more time makes sense). Thanks for sharing such a yummy & easy recipe!
