How do you make cookies from muffin mix?

You can't exactly make cookies from muffin mix. Muffin mix is formulated to create a light and fluffy muffin, and lacks the ingredients and texture needed for a chewy, spread-out cookie.

However, you can use muffin mix as a base to create a quick and easy cookie-like treat. Here are a few ideas:

1. "Muffin Top" Cookies:

* Method: Bake the muffin mix according to package instructions, but only fill each muffin cup halfway. The tops of the muffins will become crispy and slightly cookie-like. You can then add frosting, sprinkles, or any other cookie toppings.

2. Muffin Mix "Crumble" Topping:

* Method: Prepare the muffin mix as a batter, but don't bake it. Instead, spoon it over a cookie dough base before baking. The muffin mix will bake into a crumbly topping.

3. Muffin Mix "Cookie Dough" Bites:

* Method: Combine the muffin mix with softened butter, sugar, and egg. Chill the mixture until firm. Then, roll into balls and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown. These won't have the traditional cookie texture, but will be a quick and easy treat.

Important Note:

* These are just starting points. You can adjust the recipe by adding additional ingredients like chocolate chips, nuts, or spices to customize the flavor.

* While muffin mix can provide a convenient base for cookie-like treats, it won't deliver the classic cookie experience. For truly delicious cookies, you're better off using a dedicated cookie recipe.
