Big Fat Oatmeal-Raisin Cookies
 
1 (18.25 oz) pkg spice cake mix
1/3 cup packed dark brown sugar
1 cup butter, softened
2 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups raisins
2 cups quick-cooking oats
 
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  Spray cookie sheets with nonstick cooking spray.
 
In a large mixing bowl place half of the cake mix along with the brown sugar, softened butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and raisins.  Blend with an electric mixer set on medium-high speed 1-2 minutes, until blended and smooth.  Stir in the remaining cake mix and oats with a wooden spoon until all dry ingredients are well blended (dough will be very stiff).
 
Drop dough by level 1/4-cupfulls, 2 inches apart, onto prepared cookie sheets; flatten slightly with the bottom of a glass. 
 
Bake 13-17 minutes or until set at edges and just barely set at center when lightly touched.  Cool 1 minute on sheets.  Transfer to wire racks with a metal spatula and cool completely.
