Toffee Pecan Cookies

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Mix together the cake mix, oil and eggs. Stir in toffee and pecans. The dough will be slightly oily (add a Tablespoon more of oil if the batter seems too dry) and cakey.

Drop by rounded spoonful (or better yet use a cookie scoop) onto a cookie sheet (about 2 inches apart). Bake approximately 12-15 minutes (these are light colored cookies…don’t let them overbrown or they will be tough).

Cool on a rack and enjoy!

To store, layer cookies into a covered container and separate layers of cookies with wax paper to avoid sticking.

You can substitute walnuts for the pecans in a pinch. Butter pecan cake mix can be hard to find but it’s integral to the nutty taste here. Check for Betty Crocker brand, and buy an extra box or two when you find it. I’ve also accidentally bought the chocolate toffee chips before and the cookies were just as delicious.
