Strawberry Cake Mix Cookies
Ingredients
- 15.25 ounces Pillsbury Strawberry Cake Mix, (*see notes below)
- 1/2 cup Melted Butter, (Vegetable or Canola Oil can be substituted)
- 2 large Eggs
- 3/4 cup Powdered Sugar
Instructions
- Gather your ingredients.
- Combine Cake Mix, Melted Butter (or oil), and Eggs in large mixing bowl, and mix with hand mixer or stand mixer until well combined.
- Cover dough and chill in refrigerator for 2 hours.
- After dough has chilled, preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Line large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Pour powdered sugar into small bowl and set aside.
- Roll cookie dough into 1 tablespoon sized rounded balls.
- Then roll each ball in powdered sugar until well coated. (The key to perfect crinkles is small dough balls with lots of powdered sugar coating them.)
- Transfer cookie dough balls to cookie sheet.
- Bake on center oven rack for 7 – 13 minutes, or until done. (Note: Bake on the shorter end of the time range for non-stick cookie sheets & longer end of the time range for aluminum cookie sheets.)
- Remove from oven and allow to cool on cookie sheets for 5 minutes.
- Transfer cookies to wire racks to finish cooling, and ENJOY!
Notes
- *Cake Mix Box Variations: If using a 13.25 oz. Betty Crocker Strawberry Cake Mix, simply reduce the amount of Butter or Oil to 1/3 cup.
- Butter: When it comes to Cake Mix Cookies, salted or unsalted butter can be used, as the cake mix will have a little salt in it. However, I’ve found that salted butter will result in superior flavor.
- Make Ahead Baking Tips: Like so many of my cake mix cookies recipes, these cookies are crazy easy to prep ahead of time! Your cookie dough can be made today and stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days prior to baking your cookies.

I was wondering”” Has anyone frozen these cookies? If so please let me know the results. If you would recommend freezing. I want to make other cake mix cookies that you have recommended along with these. I have a small family and the cookies would not be eaten quickly so I would like to freeze to save for later.
Hi Karen ~ in my experience, cake mix cookies made without powdered sugar freeze the best. For example… this Strawberry White Chocolate cookie freezes well:

Just follow the instructions for freezing here:

Hope that helps! 🙂
which is better to use: butter or the oil?
Hi Delena ~ they both work great, it’s honestly just up to your personal preference. 🙂
These are wonderful! My son just asked for them again to take to school for his 16th birthday! You gotta love that!
Aww… that’s wonderful! I’m so glad you all liked them! 🙂
Your four ingredient recipes are the best and these cookies are just too gosh darn cute! I bet they taste so good as well!
Aww… they really do – thanks so much, Christie! 🙂
these are so easy and really on the exclamation point I did notice that I had to cook them a little longer than 7 minutes, and I needed more than a tablespoon to make a decent size cookie. But I absolutely love them so thank you!
You’re very welcome… I’m so glad you enjoyed them!
