How to Make Strawberry Cake Mix Cookies
Get ready to make these strawberry cookies from cake mix! Follow our pictures, step-by-step instructions, and tips below. Let’s get started and bake these delicious cookies!
FIRST STEP: Line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
Pro Tip
Spray your cookie sheet lightly with cooking spray, and then lay the parchment paper down. The sprayed sheet helps the parchment paper stay in place.
SECOND STEP: Mix the cake mix, oil, eggs, and white chocolate chips in a large mixing bowl with a hand mixer until the batter is well blended.

THIRD STEP: Scoop about two tablespoons of the dough into balls and place them onto the sheet pan, making sure to leave room in between each cookie.
Pro Tip
An ice cream scoop or medium cookie scoop is an easy way to scoop the strawberry cookie dough into uniform balls.

Pro Tip
Oven temperatures vary and may need to be recalibrated periodically to ensure they are accurate. Make sure to check your strawberry cookies from a cake mix at the lower end of the recommended baking time.
FOURTH STEP: Bake at 350°F for 9 to 11 minutes. You don’t want the cookies to get golden.
If you see them starting to get color on the edges, remove them from the oven.
Pro Tip
For cookies that are absolutely loaded with white chocolate chips, add more chips after your cookies come out of the oven.

FIFTH STEP: Allow the soft strawberry cookies to cool right on the sheet pan for five minutes, then transfer them to a cooling rack.
