recipe reviews for:

Chocolate Snowdrops

“This recipe makes a soft, chewy cookie that your family will gobble up in a hurry! There are only four ingredients and I have most of them in my pantry or refrigerator at all times -- no hunting for exotic ingredients! If chocolate is not your favorite, the recipe can be changed by using a lemon cake mix with the pudding in the mix. They are great also!”

I used double chocolate fudge cake mix instead and had rave reviews last year. With requests for them already this year I think I'll have to make 2 batches!!

These are awesome, and you can make them with any kind of cake mix. I've even added chocolate chips and they are amazing!

The Pros: Good flavor, simple recipe, inexpensive handy ingredients. The Cons: the texture is a little odd. I found these to be a bit chewy and "marshmallow-y." All in all good in a pinch, but not the best ever.

These were a very simple yet very yummy cookie. Good for when you are pinched for time.

These were very yummy. The only complaint that I may have is that they weren't as chewy as I would've liked them to be. I was hoping for a more brownie like consistancy, but mine came out more cake like. Maybe next time I would opt for a brownie mix instead of a cake mix.

While I thought these were "okay", a lot of other people really enjoyed them. I did not really like making them as the batter was SO stiff! My arm was aching trying to mix this stuff!

I used 1/2 cup of butter instead of shortening, and these turned out all right. I cooked them for 9 minutes instead of 10, as another reviewer suggested. I used devil's food cake mix, but it just wasn't sweet enough for a cookie.

These are less like cookies and more like bites of chocolate cake. I always read the reviews before I make a recipe and in this case I am so glad I did. The batter is definitely sticky and I burned up my hand mixer and had to finish mixing by hand. Very difficult. Another reviewer suggested dusting your hands with confectioners sugar to prevent the batter from sticking to them. That was invaluable advice because, again, the batter is very sticky. I would not go through the trouble of making these cookies again. If I want chocolate cake bites I will simply make a chocolate cake.
