Mom's Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients

Ingredients

Pre-heat oven to 350℉ (180℃).

Mix ½ of the cake mix with the butter, eggs and vanilla until smooth.

Add the remaining mix, chocolate chips and nuts if using.

Drop by teaspoon onto an ungreased cookie sheet about 2 inches apart.

Bake 10 to 12 minutes (centers will be soft).

Cool slightly before removing from the pan.

Do not leave on cookie sheet for too long as the cookies will continue to bake and become hard instead of soft and chewy.
