How to Make Cake Mix Cookies

Step-by-Step

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix eggs, shortening, and vanilla until smooth.
Add cake mix, a little at a time and blend until smooth each time. By the time the entire box is mixed in, the mixture will be of cookie dough consistency.
If you want to add any extras, like chocolate chips, peppermint brickle, nuts, etc., add in one cup during the blending process.
Drop by spoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 10 minutes. Let cool and enjoy!
