Ingredients

2 Eggs Large
⅓ cup Oil
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon Almond extract
1 box Chocolate cake mix
2 cups Fruit Loops cereal Roughly chopped

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, add eggs, oil, vanilla extract, almond extract and mix until fluffy.
Add cake mix and mix until just combined.
Chill dough for 20-30 minutes to make it easier to handle.
Scoop out small portions of the dough and form small balls.
Roll balls in a bowl of roughly chopped Fruit Loops cereal until coated. You will have to use your fingers to really press them onto the dough balls.
Place balls on a baking tray, lined with parchment paper.
Bake at 350 degrees F for about 10 minutes or until edges are firm but center is slightly soft.
Remove from oven and allow cookies to cool in the tray and then, enjoy.

Notes

Read all my tips above.
Leftovers can be stored in a cookie jar at room temperature for 2-3 days.
If the dough is very crumbly and you are having a hard time making balls, then add a little milk or water (1 tablespoon at a time) and mix the dough again.
