This is a great easy recipe! I'm a chocolate lover so I would prefer it to be richer but I see this as more of a crowd pleaser, not too sweet, not too chocolatey but somewhere in between. I added semisweet chocolate chips, a pinch of salt and a couple tablespoons of sugar though based on other reviews and I think that was essential. I also topped them with a green and a red m&m to make them look more festive for the holidays. Definitely bake only 11-12 mins, max. Only don't get 5 stars cause the recipe could be better with some minor changes.

These are wonderful, easy cookies to make. I use a cookie scoop and they turn out great. I think of them more as a little brownie cookie and brought them today for a cookie exchange at work...that's how much my family likes them!!

These cookies are wonderful. I thought they would be dense, but they aren't at all. Light and airy and if you get the right chocolate cake mix, they come out delicious. We liked these cookies so much that I had to make a second batch. Perfect cookies anytime, but I made them for Christmas.
Helpful hint: dust your hands with powder sugar before you roll dough in your hands. It will keep the cookies from sticking to the palms of your hands.

I used devil food cake mix, and it was only like 15 oz (a smaller box that what the recipe calls for. It came out PERFECTLY. Like hot chocolate cookies. Best. Thing. Ever.

These cookies are delicious ... but why do they direct us to preheat the oven BEFORE we chill the dough for two hours? Lol - I know I'm just being picky ... but you never know what people will do.

Meh. Not chewey. Not very tasty. Very disappointing. I normally need to bake cookies several minutes longer than stated time in recipes. Baked first batch 12 min. as directed - cookies were very dry and cake like. Undercooked the next batch and although they seemed moister when they came out of the oven, they cooled to the same dry, light texture. Was hoping for chewy/dense based on the name of the recipe "gooey butter cookies." As other reviewers have said - prefer chocolate crinkles from scratch.

I didn't really like these. Make sure that you use a cake mix that you love the flavor of by itself, because they taste exactly like the cake mix. cake cookies. I much prefer the chocolate crinkles and these are just as much work, minus melting the chocolate squares. Im only giving it two stars because they weren't horrible, but they definitely were not worth the effort. They taste like cake, but not as good. Trust me.
