Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Combine cake mix, melted butter or margarine, and egg in a large bowl.
- Stir in semi-sweet chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, white chocolate, and chopped pecans.
- Drop rounded tablespoonfuls of dough onto ungreased baking sheets.
- Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 9 to 11 minutes.
- Cool for 1 minute on the baking sheet.
- Remove cookies to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Tips & Substitutions
For an extra kick, consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the dough. You can substitute the pecans with walnuts or omit them entirely for a nut-free option. If you want a richer flavor, try using dark chocolate chips in place of semi-sweet ones. Make sure not to overbake to keep the cookies soft and chewy, as they will continue to firm up while cooling.
Serving Suggestions
Serve these decadent triple chocolate cookies with a glass of cold milk or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful dessert experience. They also pair beautifully with a warm cup of coffee or hot cocoa. For a fun twist, consider trying these cookies alongside the Brownie Banana Split Pizza for a dessert platter that will impress your guests.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, you can freeze the cookies in a single layer, then transfer them to a freezer bag for up to three months. To enjoy them warm again, heat in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds, or in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different type of cake mix?
Yes, you can experiment with different flavors of cake mix, such as red velvet or vanilla, to create unique variations of these cookies. Just keep in mind that the chocolate flavor will be less pronounced with non-chocolate mixes, so adjust the chocolate chips accordingly if desired.
What if I don’t have margarine?
If you don’t have margarine, you can easily substitute it with an equal amount of unsalted butter. This will enhance the flavor of the cookies. Alternatively, for a dairy-free option, you can use coconut oil or a plant-based butter substitute.
How do I know when the cookies are done baking?
The cookies are done when the edges are set and slightly golden, while the centers may still look soft. Remember, they will continue to cook on the baking sheet after being removed from the oven, so it’s best to take them out when they still have a slight sheen in the middle.
