Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 375°. In a large bowl, pour the cake mix. In a small separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, & extract. Stir cake mix and egg mixture together well with a good, sturdy wooden spoon, or the like. Batter will be stiff ... do NOT add any extra fluids. It will come together, just keep working the dry ingredients together. After the ingredients are well blended, stir in your favorite 'filler', anything that will compliment the flavor of cake you are using. Ideas: lemon cake mix, lemon extract, and craisins chocolate cake mix, vanilla extract, mini-nonpareils spice cake mix, vanilla extract, finely shredded carrot [frost cookies w/ cream cheese frosting] chocolate cake mix, mint extract, chopped Andes mints, etc.....the list is endless! At this point, you can let the dough 'rest' in the refrigerator for awhile, making it super-easy to handle. Or, you can just start throwing them onto a cookie sheet, here and now ... they crowd's probably getting antsy for fresh cookies, by this point! ha!
- 2. Using a small cookie scoop (the 1-tbsp size), drop dough onto UNGREASED cookie sheet, about 2" apart. Bake for about 9 - 10 minutes, until the cookies look 'crackled' across the top. Don't overbake! I like to set the timer for about 8-1/2 minutes, then watch them closely, to see when they look crackled. Once they do, I know to set my timer for that amt. of time (every oven is different, right? So test it...) When done, allow cookies to cool on the cookie sheet for about a minute, to allow sugars to harden. Remove with a small spatula to a cooling rack. Hide them, otherwise they will never make it to the cookie jar! :o)

HELOISE'S CAKE MIX COOKIES
Fast and easy when you don't have enough time to prepare cookies from scratch. If you mix them by hand, they will be flatter and more like a cookie. If you use a mixer, they will be puffier and more like cake. The cake-like version is good with a simple confectioner sugar & milk (or juice if you used an orange or lemon cake mix) glaze.
