Make soft, chewy strawberry cookies fast using boxed strawberry cake mix. This simple recipe requires minimal ingredients and results in sweet cookies with a classic powdered sugar crinkle top.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box (15.25 ounces) strawberry cake mix
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 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 8 to 10 minutes. The edges should be set, but the centers will still look slightly soft.
  7. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. The crinkles will set as they cool.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, substitute the vegetable oil with melted butter.
  • If you want a variation, fold in 1/2 cup of white chocolate chips or mini chocolate chips before rolling the dough in sugar.
  • For a tangy finish, drizzle the cooled cookies with a simple strawberry lemon glaze.
