Strawberry Cake Mix Cookies

Strawberry Cake Mix Cookies

Another VERY easy to make recipe. So good!

While making these little cookies; it made me think of my grandma. She always made me a Strawberry Cake for my birthday when I lived in Oklahoma. It was one of the highlights of my birthday to get a strawberry cake from her. I just know she would have loved these little cookies!

You can also make these several ways:

Plain
With a dusting of Powdered Sugar
With White icing
Drizzle with chocolate
You could even add white chocolate chips –which I would think would be just dreamy in this cookie!

Ingredients:

1 Strawberry boxed cake mix
2 eggs
1/3 cup oil

For Icing:

2 cups to 2 1/2 cups powered sugar (also known as icing sugar)
2 to 4 tablespoons milk

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

2. Add cake mix, eggs and oil and combine. This will become a dough so it will be thick.

3. Once mixed place a tablespoon to a tablespoon and half sized balls of dough on the cookie sheet. I used a cookie scooper to make it a little easier.

4. Cook in a preheated 375 degree oven. Bake for 6 to 9 minutes. Mine was done perfectly at 6 minutes 45 seconds! Be sure to watch it because ovens do vary.

5. Cool for 2 minutes on the cookie sheet before cooling on a cookie rack.

6. Cool the cookies completely and add your favorite toppings. Plain, with icing, powered sugar…etc.

Directions for the icing:

Combing Powered sugar and milk and stir. I liked a thicker consistency for this icing. I believe I used 2 cups of powered sugar and 4 tablespoons of milk.

Place on cookie and let it sit to harden.

This cookie would be super fun to take to church functions, pot lucks…..or to make for Valentines Day.

~Enjoy!~
