Cake Mix Peanut Butter Cookies image

I grew up on the cake box cookies... My mom made them all the time... I'll never forget the first time my wife made cookies... I asked what kind of cake mix she used... That didn't go over too well since she made them from scratch!

Time 22m

Yield 36 cookies, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (18 ounce) box yellow cake mix
1 cup peanut butter (creamy or chunky. JIF brand is good)
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons water
2 eggs

Steps:

  • Turn oven on to 350°F.
  • Wash your hands.
  • Dump all ingredients into a bowl.
  • Get mixer out and mix it until it is mixed up good. It will look kinda grainy, but feel oily.
  • If you haven't washed your hands yet, now would be a good time to do it.
  • After it is mixed up good,grab enough out to make about a 1 inch ball in your hand and roll it around in your hand like you did with Play-Doh when you were a kid.
  • Place the balls about 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
  • Get a fork and use the tines to make a criss cross pattern on each ball by gently pressing down on the ball 2 times. Once for each direction.
  • Place in oven and bake for 8~12 minutes.
  • Remember that the shorter the baking time, the softer the cookie. 8 minutes would be the minimum though (unless you have a one of those fancy convection ovens).
