Instructions
-
Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). This will ensure that your cookies bake evenly and achieve a perfect golden-brown color.
-
Prepare the Cake Mix: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix with the water and eggs. Stir gently until the mixture is well combined.
-
Add Spices: Sprinkle in the allspice, clove, and cinnamon. These spices will infuse your cookies with warm, aromatic flavors that are simply irresistible.
-
Incorporate Oatmeal: Gradually fold in the quick-cooking oatmeal. This is a crucial step that adds texture and heartiness to your cookies. Adjust the amount of oatmeal between 3 to 4 cups based on your preferred consistency.
-
Blend the Mixture: Using a wooden spoon or a spatula, blend all ingredients together until you have a uniform dough. Be careful not to overmix; just ensure everything is nicely combined.
-
Shape the Cookies: Using a tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. This will allow room for spreading while baking.
-
Bake: Place the cookie sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set.
-
Cool the Cookies: Once baked, remove the cookie sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheet for at least 2 minutes. This will help them firm up before transferring.
-
Transfer and Cool Completely: Carefully remove the cookies from the sheet and place them on wax paper to cool completely. This step is important for maintaining their shape and texture.
With this quick and easy recipe for What-cha-ma-call-its, you’ll have a delectable treat that’s perfect for any occasion. Enjoy sharing these delightful cookies with friends and family, and savor the deliciousness of every bite!
