Would make this again.
We made these cookies because we had tried Gooey Butter cake and wanted something a little different. The process was very easy and quick. They taste great and look fantastic. Yum. I recommend making them if you want a good thick rich cookie. :D

Excellent cookies, very easy to make. I made it during christmas and everyone loved it. I bake it for 8 minutes, I guess depending on what oven you are using. Very good cookies...

Would not make this again.
I did not care for these cookies, and they were the only ones I had left after Christmas. Maybe it was the type of cake mix I used (Great Value Butter Cake Mix) but they were not tasty to me.
