These easy Strawberry Cookies are made with a box of cake mix and some white chocolate chips. It’s a quick and easy way to make soft, fluffy cookies for any occasion. The bright pink color makes them perfect for holidays like Valentine’s Day or Easter cookies! Everyone always asks for the recipe, but the real secret is how simple it is!
If strawberry isn’t your thing, you can make cake mix cookies with any flavor you like by following the same basic instructions. If you don’t want strawberry cookies, try chocolate cake mix cookies, vanilla, red velvet, or yellow cake mix instead. I love to let my sons pick a cake mix flavor and create their favorite cookies for their birthdays.
How to Store and Reheat
Let the strawberry cookies cool completely before storing them in an airtight container or Ziplock bag. Keep them at room temperature for up to 3 days, or move them to the refrigerator for longer storage (up to 5 days). Let come to room temperature before enjoying.
How to Freeze
To freeze these strawberry cookies, place them in flat layers in a Ziplock bag, and place sheets of parchment paper between layers to prevent sticking. Once they’re frozen, you can rearrange them as needed. Freeze for up to 1 month, then thaw in the fridge before serving.
Serving Suggestions
These easy strawberry cake mix cookies are delicious all by themselves or served with a cool glass of oat milk or a Starbucks pink drink. They’re also delicious as cookie sandwiches filled with vanilla frosting, chocolate buttercream, or red velvet ice cream. Yum!
Notes from the Test Kitchen
Wondering if you can still use that box of cake mix that’s been sitting in your pantry a little too long? Most likely, the only issue will be the leavening agent (aka baking powder or soda). But since we’re already adding more to our recipe, the problem should be solved! It will freshen things up for cakey cookies that get nice and fluffy.
Ingredients
15.25 ounces Strawberry Cake Mix 432 grams (1 box), such as Betty Crocker
1 teaspoon baking powder 4 grams
2 large eggs 100 grams
⅓ cup vegetable oil 67 grams
½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract 2 grams
1 cup white chocolate chips 170 grams
Recommended Equipment
Kitchen Scale (optional)
2 Baking Sheet
Cookie Portion Scoop
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the cake mix and baking powder until well combined.
15.25 ounces Strawberry Cake Mix,1 teaspoon baking powder
In a separate smaller bowl, whisk the eggs, oil, and vanilla together by hand.
2 large eggs,⅓ cup vegetable oil,½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Pour the egg mixture into the bowl with cake mix and stir with a spoon until a dough forms. Be sure to fully combine. Mix in the white chocolate chips.
1 cup white chocolate chips
Using a small portion scoop, drop rounded balls of the dough onto your baking sheet. These cookies flatten out quite a bit, so make sure the balls are taller than they are wide, and give them quite a bit of space between each cookie.
Bake for 9-10 minutes. Do not let them brown in the oven. They will appear slightly undercooked, but that is a good thing. They will firm up and flatten as they cool. When you take them out, you can add a couple more white chocolate chips to the top to make them look pretty (this is a little food blogger trick!)
Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes.
