There is something about whipping up a batch of cookies that is so satisfying. It’s also a fun activity to do with my kids now that they are a little older.

How to make Strawberry Cake Mix Cookies

FAQ’s
Can I freeze cake mix cookies?
Yes! You can freeze the dough balls by placing them on a cookie sheet in the freezer. Once they have frozen, place the balls into a freezer safe container.
When ready to bake, put the frozen cookie balls on a cookie sheet and let them come to room temperature before baking.
Can I use a different flavor cake mix?
This recipe can be used with different flavors like vanilla, chocolate, lemon and red velvet. This strawberry cookie version is probably my favorite.
Tips for making strawberry cookies
- You can make the batter a day ahead of time, just store it in the refrigerator before ready to bake.
- Drop a tablespoon full of batter into the powdered sugar before attempting to roll into a ball. It helps the dough not stick to your hands.
- Don’t over bake. These cookies might not look quite done when you take them out but once the cool they will be perfectly chewy.
- Store these cookies in an air tight container for up to a week.
