Cake Mix Cookies Pros & Cons
- There's no mixer required, so these are easy to whip up without getting the mixer out!

- We made these jumbo sized! These bake perfectly if you use a large cookie or ice cream scoop
for measuring out the cookies when preparing to bake.
- Add whatever add-ins you want, like chocolate chips, Reese cups

Hi Floyd,
I don't know if it would work Floyd, I've never tried that? You could always substitute applesauce or melted butter? If you try it, let us know how it works out. Happy Baking!
Floyd Huyler says
Would a 1/2 cup of peanut butter work instead of the oil?
