The great thing about using a cake mix is the option you have to use a variety of flavors...and colors for that matter. For the cookies above I simply used a Devil's Food cake mix and added in some butterscotch chips. I was going for a festive look.
Here are a few recipes that I've found online and have been using to make these types of cookies. However, I've played around with them a bit and continue to make adjustments here and there.

INGREDIENTS:
1 box of cake mix (any flavor or brand)
2/3 cup oil
1 egg
Add any extras you want - nuts, raisins, chocolate chips.
DIRECTIONS:
Mix ingredients well. Form into medium size balls and flatten slightly. Use ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees (until edges are brown), about 8-10 minutes.
VARIATION:
Instead of oil add 8 ounce cream cheese, 1-2 eggs, and 1 stick butter and mix well.
