Source: All Recipes

Ingredients:
1 (18.25 oz.) box cake mix
1 tsp. baking powder
2 eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions: 
1- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2-In a medium bowl, stir together the cake mix and baking powder. Add eggs and oil, then mix until well blended. (It was a bit crumbly for me so I used my hands to really mix it well- it's not as smooth as typical dough.)
 3-Stir in chocolate chips, or your choice of additions. Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto cookie sheets.
4- Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven.  Allow cookies to cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Reeses Cheesecake Brownies


{Recipe & pic from} Pip & Ebby


Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a 9x13 pan with cooking spray.
Prepare a 19.5-oz. box of chocolate fudge brownie mix according to package directions. Spread the batter in the pan and set aside.
In a large bowl, beat one 8-ounce package of softened cream cheese with a hand-held mixer until fluffy.
Add:
One 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
Beat until smooth.
Stir in a 12-ounce package of Reese's Pieces candies.
Spoon the mixture over the brownie batter and spread evenly.

Bake for 40 minutes or until the cheesecake layer is set and the edges are golden brown. Cool for 30 minutes and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Add the following ingredients to a small microwaveable bowl:
One 12-ounce bag milk chocolate chips
3 tablespoons whipping cream
Microwave on high for 1 minute, or until the chips are melted. Stir until smooth. Spread over the cheesecake layer. Sprinkle 12 large Reese's Peanut Butter Cups (chopped) over the top. Store covered in the refrigerator.

Cake batter Blondies

{Recipe & pic from} Two Twenty One

INGREDIENTS
1 yellow cake mix  •  1/4 cup canola or vegetable oil  •  1 egg
1/2 cup milk  •  3/4 cup white chocolate chips  •  1-2 TBSP. sprinkles (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Combine cake mix, oil, and egg in a large mixing bowl.
3. Slowly add milk to bowl.  You want the batter to remain as dense as possible.
4. Mix in white chocolate chips.
5.  Pour mixture into a greased 9x9 square pan.
6. Bake for 30 minutes or until the edges begin to turn golden brown.


Now I'll add that the recipe I was following called for 1/2 cup of white chocolate chips, but I made the rational decision to use 3/4 cup because you can never have too many chocolate chips.  It also called for canola oil, but I went rogue and used vegetable oil.  I'll switch to canola oil after that bottle of vegetable oil is kaput.
