Strawberry Cake Mix Cookies – An easy dessert made with just 3 ingredients! These cookies are so tasty and great for Valentine’s Day or Easter!
Strawberry Cake Mix Cookies
I love making cake mix cookies. I was hesitant when I first heard about them a few years ago but when I finally got around to trying them a few months ago, I was sold. 3 ingredients and you end up with quite possibly the chewiest cookies EVER. Now I made these strawberry cake mix cookies in preparation for Valentine’s Day where I knew I wanted to make some festive treats to share with my family.
To decorate them, I drizzled a bit of melted white chocolate on top but you could also add sprinkles, dip half of the cookie in chocolate, etc. I probably would have put white chocolate chips right into the batter if I hadn’t run out earlier that day!
I love that this recipe is just about the easiest way to have the cookies have strong strawberry flavor. I have tried using fresh strawberries in cookies before but really, there is no topping the strawberry flavor in these cookies.
