1-2-3 Cookies!

I came home from the dorm today for a couple of hours to do laundry. Yes I am that college student who still mooches off of her parents. My bosses have been absolutely dying for a taste of my baking, and to be honest I haven't been home in a while to bake. I rummaged through the pantry and all I could find was cake mix. So I decided to whip up my famous 1-2-3 cookies. These cookies are the easiest fake outs around. No one will realize that they are semi-homemade.
