cake mix cookies

used this recipe here for cake mix cookies.  i think this is **the** easiest recipe for cookies i have ever tried.  and they are actually really good!  last week i made them with a dark chocolate cake mix.  i had to add an extra egg and an extra 1/4 cup of water, but they were great.  very chocolatey, nice and soft and not a bit cake-like as i had thought.  tonite i am using a yellow cake mix with about 1/2 cup peanut butter and 1/4 cup of water mixed in the recipe also.  then i am putting chocolate chips on top :-) yum nummy!

easiest cake ever! with mixed results

so i got some cake mix on sale today at the store. i like homemade cake a lot better, but sometimes, its just so much easier to use boxed :) and now, i know that its even easier than i thought! i found a recipe where you combine one box of cake mix with one 12-ounce can of soda. and bake it according to the box. that's it. couldn't be easier. (well, you could buy a premade cake, but then you wouldn't get to eat the cake batter, now would you?) i used rainbow chip cake mix and a can of lemon-lime soda. (the recipe called for diet soda, but i don't drink that crap) the batter taste the same, except you don't have to feel bad about eating raw eggs :) we shall see how it comes out of the oven. can't wait!

fresh from the oven!  it cut horribly, but then, i just couldn't wait :)  it was very, very moist.  to the point of being heavy even.  it also didn't rise as much as a regular cake.  upon eating some the next day though, it is a little less heavy in the mouth, but still heavy feeling in the belly.  it does cut much better once it has cooled though! :)  i think i may have to do some experimenting with this recipe....
