Orange Chocolate Chip Cake Batter cookies are a delicious variation of the tradition chocolate chip cookie. An Easy DIY recipe tutorial idea.
Do you like the combination of orange and chocolate? It is one of my favorites! Not too long ago I found a recipe for Cake Batter Cookies on Pinterest made by Mommy Hates Cooking. Over the weekend I was in a baking mood and decided to give them a try.
To the original recipe, I added some orange extract and it totally makes the cookie! Yum! They are so good!

Ingredients:
- 1 Box of Yellow Cake Mix
- 1 1/2 tsp Orange Extract
- 1/2 Cup Oil
- 1/2 Cup Applesauce
- 1 Cup Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips
- 2 Eggs
Servings: 3 Dozen
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350*.
Mix the orange extract, oil, apple sauce, and eggs and then mix in the cake mix. Add chocolate chips and mix well.
IMPORTANT: Let the dough chill for several hours.It will be easier to work with, and the cookies will be fluffier.
Drop the dough on greased cookie sheets in tablespoonfuls.
Bake in the oven for about 10 minutes.
The picture on the left is right after everything has been mixed, the picture on the right is after the dough has chilled for several hours. Can you tell the difference already?
Drop the dough by spoonfuls onto a greased cookie sheet and bake. They come out smelling AMAZING and looking oh so tasty!
The combination of chocolate and orange is just right, and the cookie is light and fluffy. My kids loved them and ate them up, and I am already thinking that I need to make another batch. SO GOOD!
