Servings: 24
Ingredients
- 15 oz Chocolate Cake Mix --13-15.25 -
- ½ cup Butter. --Melted and cooled to room temperature.
- 2 Eggs.
- 1 cup Pretzels. --Mini sized salted pretzels that have been broken up. Divided
- 1 cup Chocolate Chips. --Divided.
- ¼ cup Peanut Butter Chips
- 1 tbsp Vegetable Shortening
Instructions
- Prepare. Preheat your oven to 350f. Also, prep your baking sheet(s) for nonstick. Parchment paper or a baking mat should work in this recipe.
- Combine. Beat together the cake mix, melted butter, and eggs until combined. Then use a rubber spatula or similar item to fold in a half cup of the pretzel pieces and ¾ cup chocolate chips .
- Scoop. Use a medium sized cookie scoop to scoop out the dough and then place the scooped out pieces on to your prepared baking sheets about two inches apart from one another.
- Press. Use the palm of your hand or the bottom of a sturdy glass to press the cookies down until flat- about a half in tall. If things become sticky you can use a bit of nonstick spray on the bottom of the glass. Then press the remaining chocolate chips and pretzel pieces into the tops of the cookies
- Bake. Bake the cookies for eight to 10 minutes or until the edges appear to be set and the center looks soft and a bit puffy. Then allow the cookies to finish setting on the warm cookie sheet for five minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to finish cooling.
- Drizzle. To make the drizzle topping, place the peanut butter chips into a microwave safe bowl along with the vegetable shortening. Microwave the ingredients for a minute, stopping to carefully stir after 30 seconds. Carefully remove the mixture from the microwave and stir to combine the melted ingredients. Then transfer the ingredients to a piping bag, plastic bag with a corner cut, or simply use a spoon to drizzle the melted ingredients over your cooled cookies.
- Set. Allow the drizzled topping to set before serving.
