Cake Mix Cookies are so easy to make.
- 1 18 ounce box cake mix (any flavor but angel food)
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 - 3/4 cup Crisco
- Toss all the ingredients into a bowl, using enough Crisco to form a stiff dough. (I found it to take less time than pulling my mixer out, so I mix by hand).
- Form into little balls, place on a baking sheet 2 inches apart, gently flatten the balls, and bake at 350°F for 8-10 minutes, till puffy, and just barely golden around the edges. (They do spread a little while baking).
- Remove from the heat, cool 5 minutes before removing to a rack to cool. (Okay, I didn't use a rack the second time, they still turned out great!) They will shrink down a little in height and form a perfect cookie!
Enjoy!
