Bisquick Chocolate Chip Cookies


A few weeks ago I was going through my hundreds of cookbooks in the kitchen and rediscovered my Bisquick cookbook.  I started looking through it and found a lot of really good recipes.  We loved the Impossible Taco Pie we had for dinner recently, so I wanted to try another recipe from the cookbook.  I decided on the chocolate chip cookies.  I wanted to see if we could tell a difference from "regular" chocolate chip cookies.  At first I wasn't sure about the cookies, so I ate another cookie and another and another.  I concluded that they were pretty good, since I couldn't stop eating them!  Next time I make these I am going to do half chocolate chips and half peanut butter chips.  I think that would put these over the top!



Bisquick Chocolate Chip Cookies
(Printable Recipe)

1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar, packed
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 egg
2 3/4 cups Bisquick baking mix
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (6 oz)
1/2 cup nuts, chopped, if desired (optional)

Heat oven to 375°F. In large bowl, mix butter, sugar, vanilla and egg. Stir in Bisquick mix, chocolate chips and nuts. Drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheet, d about 2 inches apart; flatten slightly. Bake 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack.

Yum Steph.... Those cookies look great.... You need to put all of your cookie recipes into their own cookbook --and then sell it!!!!!

Hugs,

Wow, bisquick cookies! They look so yummy!

Bob said...

Intriguing. I never knew you could make cookies with Bisquick, but I suppose it makes sense. They certainly look good.

Chris said...

Wait, I was going to say exactly what Bob said. Seriously.

I've got some bisquick left over from the same pie. I'm not a fan of cookies but these seem easy enough.

I made these yesterday to munch on during the super bowl. The whole family loved them. I loved how quick and easy they were to make. Thanks for the great recipe!

Are these cookies cakey or chewy? I'm guessing cakey but not sure...

Oh my gosh! These are amazing :) I made them tonight, because I was craving chocolate chip cookies. They are so good! Thank you sooo much for this recipe! :)

Trying it with GF bisquick .. Seems to have worked great just needed to add a bit more butter because it was a bit dry with the gluten free bisquick. After adding the butter (about an extra 1/4 cup) it was great.. Thanks SO excited for gluten free cookies.

A very good cookie! I didn't have bisquick so I used wheat pancake mix instead and sugar free maple syrup in place of vanilla cuz I was out. Couldn't tell a difference. Thnx for sharing the idea :)

My aunt used to make these cookies and I lost her recipe after I lost her. She did not use Butter or Vanilla. She used Wesson Oil. There were only 5 ingredients. I think I will try this one with oil. I helped her make them, but forgot the amount of ingredients. Loved them because they were both cakey and crispy, but mostly because they were so easy to make and just GOOD!

lotta people who reviewed this recipe on the betty crocker site said it works better with 1/2 white sugar 1/2 brown sugar and crisco instead of butter.

Russell said...

Yum! What a great recipe!

AnickH said...

I can't believe how delicious these cookies are. This is how I am going to make them from now on!

These were fluffy but way too salty...I never add salt or use very little in my baking, so I really can taste the salt in the bis quick mix. Quick and easy,tho. Might try with my own baking mix

Carouh5 said...

I live in chile and we dont have bisquick mix, so what can I do?? Any idea? Thanks!!

Best Chocolate Chip Cookies EVER! This is now my go to recipe! Thx for sharing!

Amy Bergen said...

Ok these were awesome (I like that they are salty) but the mix was dry (had to add 1/4 cup extra butter). My main complaint is that they burned on the bottom while I was trying to get them browned on top. Any tips for that? I have a convection oven so actually e pelted them to come out perfect

harleyblueswoman said...

just made these ...tried the half choc. chip and half reece's pbutter chips....they were good...but a little on the dry side and fell apart easy...don't get me wrong...they will get eaten....but needs more staying power somehow....and I am not a cook...so any ideas....love it that they are easy to make tho!!

Shawzie said...

Just made these, and I have to agree, they are scrumptious!!!

cnr said...

I just made these for the first time. They taste pretty good but they are a liitle dry. I used the Heart Smart Bisquick, maybe that's the reason? I will give them another try sometime but maybe use more butter or less Bisquick. Maybe an extra egg??

I made this with a smart balance vegan butter stick in lieu of butter and dairy-free semisweet chocolate chunks (my son is allergic to milk) and they were SO yummy, thanks! Everyone keeps asking me to make them again. Easy too.
