Chocolate Chunk Oatmeal Cookies

I got this recipe off the web, but I couldn't tell you where for the life of me since I copied the recipe into my recipe file and didn't save the link (oops!) I have switched the flavors of this recipe, but the picture above is the original combination. If you want to experiment you can change the cake mix, pudding and / or chip flavors!
