Funfetti Cake Batter Cookies

Looking for something to cure your sweet tooth cravings? Try these cookies! I found the recipe here. This is like a sugar cookie meets a piece of cake. They are light and fluffy, yet rich at the same time. So good! (Also, baking these cookies makes your house smell like a bakery - amazing!) This is her recipe:
Duncan Hines French Vanilla cake mix (18.25 oz. box)
1 tsp. baking powder
2 eggs
1/2 c. vegetable oil
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 c. sprinkles
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix cake mix and baking powder. Separately, mix eggs, oil and vanilla. Add to cake mixture. Stir in sprinkles and drop by spoonfuls on cookie sheet. Bake 10 minutes. Cool on sheet for 5 minutes before removing to cooling rack to completely cool.

My notes: Cut the sprinkles a little bit! 1 cup made the dough crumbly and very hard to scoop - it was also just SO much sugar. The second batch I made only had 3/4 c. sprinkles and it worked perfectly, tasting just as delicious. Make sure to not bake longer than 10 minutes. The cookies don't change color (brown) as they cook, so they don't look "done" even when they are. Lastly, make sure the cookies are completely cooled before digging in. Since they're cake-cookies, they're really soft and crumbly right out of the oven. Then pour yourself an ice cold glass of milk and enjoy!
