These cookies were sooo good. They literally didn’t even last the night in my household!!

🍪 Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

🍪 Into a mixing bowl, combine two eggs, 1/2 cup of canola oil, and the cake mix (completely ignore instructions on box).

🍪 Roll about 2 tablespoons of your prepared cookie dough into a ball, and then coat with sugar before setting on cookie sheet. (Dough may be sticky, this is normal, but you may chill in the refrigerator for 10 minutes if you find it too difficult to work with)

🍪 These cookies spread a lot (see last pic of my first batch where I placed them too close) and so they should have about 2 inches of space all around.

🍪 Use your thumb, or the end of a spoon, to make a small indent into each cookie.

🍪 Place jam of your choice into each indent. I used a ziploc box with a corner cut to “pipe” the jam. This was much easier, and more precise, to me than just spooning it into each coooen

🍪 Bake cookies for 15-18 minutes.

🍪 Let cookies cool for 5-10 minutes before transferring.
