Cookies were promised...

And cookies are delivered. These cookies are incredibly sinful, and I normally eat much healthier food. For some reason on Wednesday, I just had a craving and jumped right in.

Double Nut Chocolate Chip Cookies*
1 - 18.5 ounce package moist yellow cake mix
1/2 cup butter
1 egg
1 cup semisweet chocolate chip cookies
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1 cup sliced almonds (divided: 1/4 and 3/4)

1) Heat oven at 375 degrees F. Grease cookie sheets.
2) Melt butter in sauce pan over low heat. Pour butter into bowl, add egg and cake mix, combine.
3) Stir in chocolate chips, pecans, and 1/4 cup of almonds.
4) Shape dough into balls, press top of ball into remaining almonds (3/4 cup) - (I didn't do this in the above picture because I was feeling lazy. I just added the entire cup of almonds into the mix in step three.)
5) Place on cookie sheet and bake for 9-11 minutes until lightly browned.

Well, yum! I have never heard of putting a cake mix in cookies - that is just too weird, but you have to know I am going to try it.

Hey, I made them! They are good - they are better when they are cooled down. Thanks for the recipe.
