Make soft, chewy strawberry cookies quickly using just three simple ingredients and a box of strawberry cake mix. These cookies develop a desirable crinkly top when baked.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box (15.25 oz) strawberry cake mix
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar (for rolling)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the strawberry cake mix, eggs, and vegetable oil. Mix with a spoon or electric mixer until the dough comes together. Do not overmix.
  3. Place the powdered sugar in a shallow dish.
  4. Scoop the dough into balls, about 1 tablespoon each. Roll each dough ball completely in the powdered sugar until fully coated.
  5. Place the coated dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between them.
  6. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes. The edges should look set, but the centers will still look slightly soft.
  7. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before moving them to a wire rack to cool completely. The tops will crackle as they cool.

Notes

  • For a variation, fold in 1/2 cup of mini chocolate chips after mixing the dough.
  • If you want a stronger strawberry flavor, add 1 teaspoon of strawberry extract to the dough mixture.
  • These cookies are best stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
