Cake Sandwich Cookies aka Oreo Cakesters

>1 cake mix (Any kind you want, Be Creative)
>1/3 c oil
>2 eggs

*Mix all together. Roll into small balls and put on cookie sheet. Bake at 350'F for 8 to 10 minutes. Take out when cookies crackle on top.

***Other Information: The Anderson way is Milk Chocolate cake mix and White Chocolate Chips. Devil's food and frosting make Oreo; add 1 bag of any kind of baking chips (chocolate butterscotch, peanut butter, M&M's, vanilla etc.) Or use a white or yellow mix and roll balls in cinnamon sugar for snickerdoodles.

Frosting:
>1 8 oz pkg cream cheese
>1 cube margarine or butter
>3/4 bag (2lb I think) powdered sugar (This step was a little confusing to me)
>1 tsp vanilla.

*Mix all together. Definately make sure cookies are cool before frosting them.

Chewy Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients
>1 cup butter, softened
>1 cup packed light brown sugar
>1/2 cup white sugar
>2 eggs
>2 tsp vanilla extract
>1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (I use Whole Wheat)
>1/2 tsp baking soda
>1 tsp salt
>3 cups quick-cooking oats
>1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
>1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions
*1. Preheat oven to 325'F
*2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt, stir into mixture until just blended. Mix in the quick oats, walnuts (optional), and chocolate chips. Drop by spoonfuls (I use a small cookie scooper) onto ungreased (I use parchment paper on top of the cookie sheet) cookie sheets.
*3. Bake for 10-12 minutes in preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
