Easy Pumpkin Spice Cookies (cake Mix)

Total Time: 35 mins Preparation Time: 5 mins Cook Time: 30 mins

Ingredients

• 1 (18 1/4 ounce) box spice cake mix
• 1 (15 ounce) can solid-pack pumpkin (the small can)
• 1 cup chopped walnuts (optional) or 1 cup chopped pecans (optional) or 1/2 cup raisins (optional)
• 1 cup cream cheese frosting (optional)

Recipe

• 1 preheat oven to 350°f.
• 2 spray cookie sheets lightly with vegetable spray (pam).
• 3 in a large bowl, mix together the cake mix and pumpkin with a fork or mixer until well blended; stir in nuts or raisins, if desired.
• 4 drop by large rounded spoonfuls onto the cookie sheet; they don't flatten out much so however you place them on the sheet is pretty much how they'll look after baking.
• 5 bake for 8 to 15 minutes, depending on the size of your cookies.
• 6 allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for up to 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
• 7 frost, if desired.
• 8 how many cookies you get depends on how large you make them of course - just increase your baking time if making larger cookies (it's truly difficult to burn these, but they will get crispier & less moist); mine, made with a medium size cookie scoop, take 13-15 minutes to bake and yield about 3 dozen.
