How to Make Oatmeal Raisin Cake Mix Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Soak 1/2 cup raisins in 1/4 cup warm water for 30-60 minutes, or until plump. Drain well and set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, combine one 15.25 ounce box of your favorite oatmeal cake mix, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 2 large eggs, 1 cup rolled oats, and 1/3 cup vegetable oil.
  4. Beat at low speed with an electric mixer until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Gently stir in the drained raisins.
  6. (Optional) Cover the bowl and chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to an hour to allow flavors to meld and prevent the cookies from spreading too thin.
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 1 minute before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
