Bag mix chocolate chip cookies

Variation: make half the batch with shortening and water instead of butter; the shortening cookies come out cracked on top and much softer, with stiffer but not crunchy edges.

Set the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

Combine the cookie mix, softened butter and egg in a medium bowl and mix until a soft dough forms.

Form the dough by rounded teaspoons, or larger for normal sized cookies.

Bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for eight to ten minutes or until the edges are set, then cool two minutes before removing from the baking sheet.
