❓ Frequently Asked Questions About 3 Ingredient Chocolate Chip Cookies

1. Can I use a different type of cake mix?

Yes, you can use any flavor of cake mix like white, chocolate, or even funfetti. The texture and taste will change slightly, but they will all work.

2. Can I use butter instead of oil?

You can, but the cookies will be denser and less chewy. Oil gives them a softer texture. If you use melted butter, use the same amount.

3. How should I store these cookies?

Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. You can also freeze the baked cookies for up to 3 months.

4. Can I make these cookies gluten free?

Yes, just use a gluten free cake mix. The rest of the ingredients are naturally gluten free, but always check the labels on your chocolate chips.

5. Why are my cookies flat?

If your cookies spread too much, your dough might be too warm. Try chilling the dough for 15 minutes before baking. Also, make sure you are using the correct amount of oil.
