- 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Notes
- These can be stored in an airtight container for 3-5 days. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months.
- Don't overbake, cookies finish quickly in the last 1–2 minutes. Remove when set and no longer doughy.
- Move cookies off the baking sheet and onto a wire rack right away to prevent overly crispy bottoms.
- Any boxed mix works, but extra moist white is a favorite. Try flavors like strawberry or French vanilla for variety.
- Bake on a parchment-lined baking sheet for easy clean up.
