Lazy Cookie Cake


This might just be the easiest recipe ever. Several months ago I bought white cake mix for a recipe.  I am not sure what I was thinking as I ended up with for boxes and only used one.  I don't use cake mix often and I had no idea how I was ever going to use up these mixes. 

I found a few recipes here and there that looked good but many required yellow cake not white. I saved them thinking maybe it wouldn't matter but still never ended up doing anything with my cake mixes. 


Well this week I saw a round up of lazy cookie cake recipes on Facebook.  Lazy cookie cakes are something I had never heard of you. You take cake mix and combine with eggs, butter and the mix ins of your choice.  Throw it in a big pan and bake away. Super easy. 

This week I was going for super easy and we had no sweets in the house. Crazy how much I crave sweets when none exist in the house. Well this recipe solved that issues in lightening speed. 

I went simple and threw in some chocolate chips. The bars come out not exactly tasting like chocolate chip cookies but pretty darn close. No complaints from me or Mr. J.  His comment was they are delicious. No worries now about using the two other boxes of cake mix. 

Happy Friday!
