Cake batter chocolate chip cookies

Looking for a sweet treat? These are awesome. This is my best recipe. Everyone loves these cookies. They all ask me for the recipe so I decided to share it. These cookies smell and taste amazing. This was a recipe I got from my grandmother, but I don't know where she got it.
Things you need:
1/2 cup oil
2 eggs
1 box cake mix (best to use yellow cake but if you want chocolate cake, use 3/4 cup oil because those cookies are drier)
Chips (no, not potato chips. Chocolate, peanut butter, butterscotch, whatever you like)
What to do:
Get a big bowl to mix in and preheat the oven to 350ºf.
Add your cake mix to the bowl, then the oil and eggs.
Mix using a scraping spatula until you have a thick dough.
Add your chips, use as little or as much as you want but only add a little at a time so that they are mixed in well.
Get out your cookie sheet and use a regular spoon to scoop balls of dough to make your cookies.
Put them into the oven for 8 minutes then check to make sure they are done. They might need more time to cook but don't cook them too long because the bottom will burn.
Tips and tricks:
Like most cookies, they won't look done on the top but they will be done on the bottom. When they are completely cooked on the bottom, it is time to take them out because if you wait for the tops to be done, the bottom will burn.
Don't make them too big because they expand while baking.
Do not use all the dough at once, this makes up to 2 dozen cookies.
Make the cookies somewhat small so you will have lots of them.
I have never tried these with any fruit or anything in these but that might be good too.
These cookies are totally customizable so try every combination of flavors possible. I've even seen sprinkles added into the dough to make festive birthday cookies.
