This is so easy; I make hundreds of these every year and at every holiday. Your imagination is the only limitation when making the varieties. My dad's favorite is spice cake with dried cranberries and walnuts. My kids love fudge cake with mint chips.
- 1 box any flavor Duncan Hines cake mix
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/3 cup oil
- Any coordinating add-in (baking chips any flavor, nuts, raisins, cranberries, or fruit)
- Using a hand mixer, mix cake mix and wet ingredients together until smooth.
- Mix in the add-ins last, and stir by hand.
- Place teaspoonfuls on cookie sheet .
- Bake 10 min. at 350 degrees
- Tap on counter to set after baking, and let cool ten minutes before removing to plate.

This is a very easy and delicious recipe. For the Fourth of July get-together we used the white cake mix and then used the canned icing for the red, white and blue theme we added the sprinkles also, everyone loved the sweet airy fresh baked goodies!

I love this recipe, so easy to do, even if I'm not in the mood for baking.

If you like cake-like cookies, these are for you. I prefer a more traditional crispy/chewy cookie but these are good in a pinch, especially if you add in ingredients. I used a yellow cake mix and used butter instead of oil. I also added small amounts of each: brown sugar, whole wheat flour, oatmeal, white and milk chocolate chips, semi-sweet chocolate chips, walnuts and pure vanilla bean seeds. It really tasted like a gourmet cookie. They were very sweet but my kids loved them!

I hate to ask a stupid question, but I've re-read the recipe four times now. It sounds great, BUT what temperature are we supposed to bake them at ??

We have made these cookies for years. We like the orange cake with chocolate chips.

The recipe should list the approximate amount of add-ins needed.
