These are easy and yummy. I usually use strawberry or raspberry preserves, but they will work with any kind.... Have added peanut butter (crunchy kind melted for 30 seconds in the microwave) to the cake mix & oatmeal mixture along with the butter, then used grape & raspberry preserves and made peanut butter and jelly...
