1 (18.25 oz.) box white cake mix
1/2 lb. (2 sticks) butter or margarine
1 egg
1 tea. vanilla extract or flavoring
2 C. quick or old-fashioned oats, uncooked
Assorted colored sugars, candy sprinkles,
    sm. candies or decorator icings

Heat oven to 350 degrees F.

In lrg. bowl, combine half the dry cake mix with butter, egg and vanilla extract or flavoring; mix thoroughly with lrg. spoon. Stir in remaining cake mix and oats; mix well.

Divide dough in half. On well-floured surface, using a well-floured rolling pin, roll each half to no more than 4-in. thickness. Cut dough with 3-in. snowflake or other lrg. holiday cookie cutter. Place about 1 in. apart on unprepared cookie sheets. If cookies will be used as tree ornaments, poke a hole at the top of each cookie with drinking straw before baking. (Repeat immediately after baking if hole closes).

Bake 6 to 8 min. or until set (centers may still be soft). Carefully remove to wire rack; cool completely. If desired, decorate cookies.
