Chocolate Chip Oat Cookies (using a cake mix)

How about something sweet to begin your week?
That's MY style for sure...=) 

I love cookies....I also love quick and easy.  

So when I saw this simple recipe in a lovely cookbook gifted to me...

(Thanks Angie!) CAKE MIX MAGIC...I knew I HAD to make them. 

They're simple to mix and there are so many variations...

using a different kind of cake mix (maybe strawberry?)

with either white chocolate chips or milk chocolate? 

Customize them to suit your family's favorite combo. 

They're so good, I do believe you'll want to make them right away! *-*

I am a firm believer that...NOTHING SAYS LOVIN' LIKE A WARM COOKIE FROM THE OVEN! 

I made half a batch with chocolate chips - half a batch with white.

MMM good!
