Prepare a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, beat together the dry cake mix, vegetable oil, eggs, almond extract.
Using a cookie scoop or a spoon, drop scoops of dough on the prepared baking sheet, at least two inches apart.
Bake about 10-12 minutes, or until set in the middle and slightly browned around the edges.
Cool 2 minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before decorating.
How to Decorate the Cookies
Melt the white candy melts according to the package directions.
Dip one half of the cooled cookie in the melted white chocolate and then immediately add the colorful Christmas sprinkles on top of the melted chocolate.
Lay the cookies flat on a parchment paper.
Allow the cookies to sit while the white chocolate sets completely.
Notes
You can substitute the almond extract with orange, lemon or even mint extract for a different flavor.
