1 box(es) cake mix, any flavor
2 large eggs
1/3 cup(s) oil
1 teaspoon(s) flavoring or extract
1/2 cup(s) any type of filler
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. In a large bowl, pour the cake mix.
In a small separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, and extract.
Stir cake mix and egg mixture together well with a good, sturdy wooden spoon or the like.
The batter will be stiff ... do NOT add any extra fluids. It will come together; keep working the dry ingredients together.
After the ingredients are well blended, stir in your favorite 'filler' - anything that will complement the flavor of the cake you are using. Let the dough rest in the refrigerator to stiffen up and be easier to handle.
Using a small cookie scoop (the 1 Tbsp size), drop dough onto a cookie sheet about 2" apart.
Bake for 9 - 10 minutes or until the cookies look 'crackled' across the top. Don't overbake! I like to set the timer for about 8-1/2 minutes and then watch them closely to see when they look crackled.
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.
