1 tbsp. pure vanilla extract
1 tsp. coconut extract

Instructions

Stir cake mix, flour and baking powder with wooden spoon.

Rotate cookie sheets on oven racks half way through baking time.

Notes

NOTE: Some cheaper cake mixes don’t have the full amounts of dry cake mix and so you may need to add a little flour to make sure the cookies aren’t so gooey they will end up flattening out too much in the pan when they bake. (I used Pillsbury).

NOTE: I prefer the butter taste from the cake mix, but if you prefer a whiter cookie, then use a French Vanilla or Classic White Cake Mix.
