Oatmeal Raisin Cookies (Cake Mix) image

I am occasionally called on mass produce cookies for events and need recipes which deliver homemade results with ease. A handy supply of cake mixes allow me to do just that. This particular recipe combines some elements of my favorite scratch recipes starting with a yellow cake mix. The cookies are slightly crispy on the outside and tender and chewy in the center.

Time 20m

Yield 24 cookies, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

18 1/2 ounces yellow cake mix
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 eggs
1 cup quick-cooking oats
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup raisins

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Soak raisins in water 30 to 60 minutes or until plump; drain well.
  • Combine cake mix, cinnamon, eggs, oats and oil in large bowl. Beat at low speed with electric mixer until blended. Stir in raisins. May chill dough in refrigerator until ready to bake. Drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls onto prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool 1 minute on baking sheet. Remove and cool completely.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh raisins, butter, and eggs will give your cookies the best flavor and texture.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the dough, making the cookies light and tender.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing can make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies until they are golden brown on the edges: Overbaking can make the cookies dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them: This will help to prevent them from sticking together.

Conclusion:

Raisin cake cookies are a classic treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple tips, you can make delicious raisin cake cookies that will be a hit with your family and friends.
