Snickerdoodles (the cheater's way!)

If you are strapped for time, want a delicious snickerdoodle, or both, look no further! Pillsbury gave this yummy recipe. You can't mess it up! It is perfect for me, or anyone just starting out cooking, or even the seasoned cookers who need a fast, easy recipe and a break! Enjoy!
Snickerdoodles
1 package white cake mix
1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
1 egg
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick cookie sheets). Mix cake mix, butter and egg in large bowl with spoon until dough forms (some dry mix will remain). Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Mix sugar and cinnamon in small bowl. Roll balls in cinnamon-sugar mixture. Place about 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until set. Remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack.
French vanilla cake mix is a great stand-in for the white cake mix.
For Super Snickerdoodles, shape dough into 1 1/2-inch balls and place them 3 inches apart on the cookie sheet; bake 12 to 14 minutes. You’ll get about 26 large cookies.
