Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Dump Cake
Equipment
- 1 9" x 13" baking dish or pan
Ingredients
- 2 cups chocolate chip cookie dough store-bought or homemade—no judgment
- 1 box chocolate cake mix
- 1/2 cup butter melted (because life is better with butter)
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips because you can never have too much chocolate
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans optional, but it makes you feel fancy
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Take a deep breath; this is going to be epic.
- Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough evenly into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Resist the urge to eat it all before it hits the pan.
- Sprinkle the chocolate cake mix over the cookie dough like you’re spreading joy, because you are.
- Drizzle that melted butter on top like you’re an artist creating a masterpiece—because you are.
- Add mini chocolate chips and pecans if you’re feeling extra. Trust me, you’re worth it.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes until the top is set and the cookie dough is the perfect level of gooey goodness.
- Let it cool slightly before diving in—if you can wait that long.
