For the Cookies
- 1 box milk chocolate cake mix
- 2 large eggs
- ⅓ cup canola oil
For the Chocolate Icing
- 3 tablespoons whole milk
- ½ cup unsalted sweet cream butter
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
Preheat the oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, blend the cake mix, eggs, and oil together until the dough is fully incorporated and smooth.
Portion the dough using an ice cream scoop, spacing each scoop about two inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, then let the cookies rest briefly before transferring them to a wire cooling rack. Continue baking remaining dough in batches.
For the Icing
In a medium saucepan set over medium heat, combine the butter, cocoa powder, and milk. Whisk steadily until the mixture is well blended and smooth.
Take the pan off the heat and gradually whisk in the powdered sugar until a silky consistency is achieved.
Set a cookie sheet beneath the cooling rack to catch any excess drizzle. Spoon the icing generously over each cookie. Allow to set before serving.
