Mixing the Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, eggs, and oil. Stir until the ingredients are fully incorporated and the dough is smooth. The consistency should be thick enough to roll into balls, but if it's too sticky, you can chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes.
Baking the Cookies: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Roll the dough into small balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Gently press down on each ball to flatten slightly. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft. Be careful not to overbake them; you want that perfect chewy texture.
Topping with Frosting: While the cookies are baking, prepare your homemade frosting if you haven’t already. Once the cookies are out of the oven and have cooled slightly, spread a generous layer of frosting on top of each one. The warmth of the cookies will slightly melt the frosting, making them even more indulgent.
Tip
For an extra touch of decadence, you can sprinkle some chocolate chips or shavings on top of the frosting while it’s still warm. If you’re a fan of a bit of crunch, adding crushed nuts or sprinkles will give your cookies a delightful texture contrast.
Conclusion
