BM hunter or a frost mage I would think
Simplest to pick up but as all classes to master takes more work

Demon Hunter can be as low as 3 active buttons.

Ret pallies are pretty basic. I actually have more fun on a DH than a ret pally.

Never played it in real content but I heard DHs are very easy to play
Havoc DH and Ret Paladin are both the simplest classes ever, as one with 1 for each class alts I can guarantee it.
havoc demon hunter.
I’d have to agree with Frost Mage. Decent damage and easy rotation.
BM Hunter, or Arcane Mage. Go look any any class “easy mode” on Icy Veins, that’d give you a better idea.
This guy speaks the truth. It takes about 2 minutes to get good at playing DH and that’s not a joke.

Alliance. 
Guardian druid has to be up there with the simplest to play at a super basic level. Thrash swipe and iron fur and you are doing ok. Obviously there is then mob positioning and pulling etc but that is role not really class /spec

As a Havoc Demon Hunter myself, yep we’re pretty easy.
Though in terms of expectation vs reality no class is actually just 2-3 buttons to play. There are buffs you’ll want to keep on CD, DPS windows. Great if you already know this, just something to keep in mind.
Easy mode:
If you’re wanting to have the most smooth and easy gaming experience while still having decent DPS I’d go BM Hunter, Havoc Demon or Retribution Paladin.
Then go to Bloodmallet or raidbots and grab your highest simming passive trinkets and passive essences.
Why do I say this? The highest simming active trinkets only give you the best DPS when used optimally.

I think arcane mage is easiest and I play all classes. BM hunter is easy also. DH and DK also easy.

Arcane mages aren’t easy, at least for PvP. Your main cc school is your offensive damage school.
For PvE, yeah, it can be pretty simplistic.

Beast master by far far far far far is the simplest, easiest, most forgiving class to play.
Its a ranged class, with a tank, that has literally no downside.

Blood DK.
I press like 4 buttons, then actually try to get trinkets/essences with effects so I have something else to press.
You don’t do great DPS, when soloing, but you pretty much can do whatever since you are impossible to kill (as far as PVE.)
BM Hunter/Two pet is also good, that is one of my alts 
Arcane locked
