Ingredients
-
1 box spice cake mix (15.25 oz)
-
2 large eggs
-
½ cup vegetable oil
-
1 cup white chocolate chips (or cinnamon chips)
-
½ cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line with parchment paper.
2️⃣ Mix the dough: In a large bowl, combine the spice cake mix, eggs, and oil. Stir until a thick dough forms.
3️⃣ Add mix-ins: Fold in the white chocolate chips and nuts if using. Mix until evenly distributed.
4️⃣ Press into pan: Spread the dough evenly into the prepared baking dish. It will be thick, so use a spatula or your hands to press it down.
5️⃣ Bake: Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the center is set.
6️⃣ Cool and slice: Allow to cool completely before slicing into bars or squares. Enjoy!
Notes
-
Change it up: Try using chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, or even dried cranberries for a flavor twist.
-
Don’t overbake: These bars stay soft and chewy if you pull them out just as the center sets.
-
Store well: Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days—or freeze for longer storage.
