Instructions

In a large bowl, beat together the dry cake mix, oil, eggs with an electric mixer on medium speed until well blended, about 1 minute.
Stir in the cinnamon, oats, chocolate chips, peanuts, wheat germ and dried cranberries with a wooden spoon until well combined.
Drop the dough by level ¼-cupfuls, about 3 inches apart, onto prepared cookie sheets.
Flatten slightly with the palm of your hand or the back of a spoon.
Bake just until the edges are set and the center is still a little soft, 12 to 18 minutes.
Remove from the oven and cool on the cookie sheets for 1 minute before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
Repeat with remaining cookie dough, being sure that cookie sheets are cool before using them again.
