Cake mix cookies

This is one of my FAVORITE recipes because it's quick and SUPER easy to make...

Ingredients:

1 box of cake mix*
1/2 cup of vegetable oil
2 large eggs

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350. Mix all ingredients well - it'll be a little gummy. Drop teaspoons of dough on an ungreased** cookie sheet, 2 inches apart. Bake for 10 minutes (do NOT over bake). Let cookies cool on baking sheet for 2 minutes, then place on a wire rack. Cookies will be completely cool in 30 minutes. Store TIGHTLY covered.

*Get creative with the cake flavors. Lemon is my personal favorite for this cookie, but you can also try yellow cake and chocolate chips, spice cake, german chocolate (just top with a little german chocolate frosting for a yummy treat.)

**To help with the mess that baking usually creates, try lining parchment paper on the cookie sheet (creates less mess, nothing sticks and if following the directions properly - NO BURNT COOKIES!)

Tam,
You are now my (and my boyfriend's) best friend. I made these last night - and they are the BOMB! I used the Pilsbury extra moist cake mix in yellow cake flavor (on sale for $1) and used cream cheese frosting. (They were also good plain)They were so good!! I ate like 8 of them and went to bed sick!
Thanks!! :)
