How to Make Delightful Ghirardelli Peppermint Bark Cake Mix Cookies

Step 1:  Preheat and Prepare Pan – Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.

Step 2: Mix the Dough – In a large mixing bowl, combine the chocolate fudge cake mix, vegetable oil, and eggs. Mix until well combined and a dough forms.

Step 3: Fold in the Peppermint Bark Mix-ins – Gently fold in 1 cup of the Ghirardelli Peppermint Bark Mix-ins. This adds an extra layer of rich chocolate and peppermint flavor to your cookies.

Step 4: Form the Cookie Dough Balls – Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, scoop out portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place each dough ball on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between them for spreading.

Step 5: Add Additional Peppermint Crunch – Using the remaining peppermint bark mix-ins, lightly press a few more chocolate chips and bark pieces on top. Press the candies gently into the dough to ensure they stick and have a beautiful presentation.

Step 6: Bake the Cookies – Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are set and lightly golden. The centers should still be soft.

Step 7: Cool and Enjoy – Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 2-5 minutes. Then transfer them to wire racks to cool completely. This helps them firm up and enhances their chewy texture. Your Ghirardelli Peppermint Bark Cake Mix Cookies are now ready to be enjoyed! Serve them with a cold glass of milk, a hot cup of cocoa, or just on their own as a delightful treat.
