Strawberry Cake Mix Cookies (The BEST Strawberry Cookies)
These Strawberry Cake Mix Cookies are my GO TO easy strawberry cookie recipe. I am so excited about these Cake Mix Cookies. Strawberry Cookies with White Chocolate Chips are a recipe I have made time and time again for everything from Valentine’s Day, to Easter, to baby showers. I’m new to baking, so using cake mix in cookies is such an easy hack to creating a delicious cookie!
The accomplished bakers out there are going to think I’m a loser, but these are made with Strawberry Cake Mix!!! Be still my heart! These are so easy, fun, and delicious, my new favorite Valentine’s treat! Really, I love strawberry year round, so these will be in my kitchen a lot longer than this holiday, but they sure are cute in pink and white.
If you’re a big strawberry fan, or have a child that would love snacking on adorable Pink Cookies, this Cake Mix Cookie Recipe is for you!
Tips for making Cake Mix Cookies:
- Don’t over cook the cookies. I made this mistake a few times! I like these a little bit gooey on the inside and slightly browned on the outside. When you see the pink begin to brown, get them out of the oven stat!
- Add more white chocolate chips after you bake. That’s right, this is the oldest blogger food pic trick in the book! Once you take the cookies out of the oven and place them on a cooling rack, add more fresh white chocolate chips to the top. It will make your Pink Cookies look LOADED with chocolate chips and you’ll look like an experienced baker. High fives!
- If you want to make variations of this recipe, you can use any type of cake mix! The sky is the limit.

Cake Mix Cookies…such an amazing idea. I’m trying lemon next. I think they will be so good! After that I plan to try some variation of chocolate…maybe devils food cake cookies? Such a fun and super easy way to whip up a quick batch of cookies for any occasion. I think I’m addicted!!!

Ingredients
- 1 box Strawberry Cake Mix
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 eggs
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F
- Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine cake mix and baking powder. In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together eggs, oil, and vanilla by hand. Whisk until well combined.
- Pour egg mixture into bowl with cake mix and stir with a spoon until a dough forms. Be sure to fully combine. Mix in the white chocolate chips.
- Using a small ice cream scoop, drop rounded balls of the dough onto your baking sheet. These cookies flatten out quite a bit, so make sure the balls are taller than they are wide, and give them quite a bit of space between each cookie.
- Bake for 9-10 minutes. Do not let them brown in the oven. They will appear slightly undercooked, but that is a good thing. They will firm up and flatten as they cool. When you take them out, you can add a couple more white chocolate chips to the top to make them look pretty (this is a little food blogger trick!)
- Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes. Enjoy!

Has anyone made the dough and put in the refridgerator to bake at a later date?
Thanks, Sara! I’m so happy you loved them!
Easy Strawberry Cookie recipe. Will make more.
Let me know how that turns out, it sounds super yummy! I’m glad you loved them so much!!
Easy and yummy! Thank you! We did half with the white chocolate chips and the other half without. They were both yum!! I’m totally trying this recipe with lemon cake mix soon. The tips are much appreciated as well!
I can’t wait for more people to try these!! Thanks for sharing my recipes!
Made them last night and they turned out great for the Big Game today! Also making them for a client lunch in valentine’s day!
I’m so glad you loved them! I hope everyone enjoys them just as much!
The tip on adding chocolate chips was a great idea, I’m baking these again for my church family for Valentines day! So yummy!
What an adorable idea!!
Can you use a heart shaped cookie cutter for this recipe? Thinking of doing this for Valentine’s Day.
I just made these today and just saw your comment. Now I am so glad I got the Duncan Hines instead of Betty Crocker. I started to grab it then saw it had pudding mix in it and I was like ‘eh…better not use that one’ and grabbed Duncan instead
Great idea! Thanks Jenn!
This recipe is SOOO much better when you add a small box of softened cream-cheese to the batter!
Thanks, Harriett!
Gunners!
What a great idea! Thanks for stopping by Darlene!
I’m using these for Pink Out for breast cancer to sell at our school.
So glad they turned out well for you Melody. These seem to be a favorite!
Amazing! They were a hit at my class bake sale! The cookies do appear under-cooked, but the bottoms are perfectly browned and they do harden, as the recipe suggests. This is the 2nd time they’re visiting my oven!
Yay! They’re so great for Valentine’s Day. Chocolate cookies will be SO good. :)
Made these for Valentine’s Day! They were amazing. I’m going to try Chocolate next!
Thanks for telling me i can freeze these cookies but What is the best way to freeze them?
You can!
I would love to make the strawberry cake mix cookies for my daughters baby shower. Can I make them ahead of time and freeze them?
OMG! How cute!!! I hope it was a great success :)
Making these now! I’m meeting my boyfriends 3 yo daughter for the first time and thought pink cookies are perfect! Such a great/cute idea!
You can use either. We used plain in this batch pictured but I’ve also used the moist supreme with the strawberry bits. That batch was significantly sweeter. Whatever you prefer!
Does it matter if the cake mix is a pudding in the mix or plain, like Duncan Hines?
Hey Becky these look great will be making soon! I was wondering what brand of cake mix did you use?
Thanks so much Ruthie!
I love the color! Perfect for a girl party! I love those easy recipes! Thanks!
I LOVED THE RECIPE, BUT HOW DO I MAKE THEM MORE FLUFFY ?
I am dumbfounded as to how you got 24 cookies out of this! I have a 15.25 oz box of Stawberry Supreme Cake Mix from Pilsbury. I could barely make 11 small cookies. They’re in the oven now. What could I have done wrong!?
These look great! My main concern though would be with the texture. Do they turn out tasting more cakey than like a real cookie?
Thanks Becky. You REALLY inspired me!????
Oh that is so fun! Love that idea.
We are also going to try orange too. I wonder how that will turn out.????????????
I just LOVE the lemon idea!!!!
Oh my gosh! I just made a batch of these cookies and they were astonishing! Real soon we are going to try lemon! Thank you so much for sharing your recipe Becky. I think these cookies are my new favorite. Everyone in my family thinks they are delicious too. When they came out of the oven I knew they would be awesome, and they were. I love these cookies. I hope more people will bake these too!!!????????????????????????
Awesome! So glad you loved it!
Thanks Laura!
Hi Mondo, while I don’t know what type of recipe you are creating, I would advise against using cake mix as flour because it has leavening mixed into it already. Since the box doesn’t state the amount of leavening per unit of mix, it would throw off the proportions of any other recipe that required leavening (and would mess up recipes that did not use leavening).
This is a fantastic recipe! I substituted almond extract for the vanilla to give them an extra fruity, cherry-esque flavor boost and they taste awesome. Since I am at a high altitude, I also added 1/2 cup of white flour to the mix and it turned out perfectly. Never would have thought to combine strawberry cake mix and white chocolate chips–they are a huge hit with us and I am definitely taking these into work for Valentine’s Day. Keep up the great work!
Oh gosh I’m sorry Mondo I have no idea as far as that’s concerned. I”m not the best baker and haven’t made any vegan baked goods :) Hope you find what you’re looking for! Thanks so much for stopping by!
I would love ❤️ help- I’m designing my own recipe using this as a model. I just have the question of whether or not I should use the cake mix as flour? Is this what I can constitute as flour? My recipe is vegan and I need to figure how much substituted vegan powder I need?
I think that would be a delicious combination!!!
I plan on making these for a bake sale and these look absolutely delicious! I am wondering (since milk chocolate + strawberry is my fav), could I do milk chocolate chips instead of white chocolate? These make 24 correct? I am making a total of 48 cookies (24 of these, 24 of chocolate chip cookies) and selling these for 2 cookies/batch for a $1.00. I can’t wait ot start baking these!!!
YES! This just made my day. Thank you so much Lashanda! You don’t know what that means to me :)
OMG! I just made these delicious cookies tonight. It’s 2:50am in the morning and I told my team before I went to bed I will be making these cookies. I promised I will share them however I can’t stop eating them. The combination of white chocolate and strawberry is amazing,the instructions were on point and easy to follow. I will make these fabulous cookies again before the week is over.
Omg I LOVE your devils food/pb idea! Those sound seriously perfect. I’m so glad you like these. I’m in the same boat…not the best baker. It’s fun to still have a few tricks up our sleeves :)
These are amazing. I made them for a baby shower I was throwing. Also, tried with devils food flavor and put peanut butter and chocolate chips and my kids loved them. So thankful for this recipe. I can not bake very well and I did not mess these up ♡♡♡♡
I would say probably 4-5 days. They’re not a cookie that keeps incredibly well, they’re definitely best the first couple days. Hope that helps!! Thanks for stopping by :)
How long will these last? Can I bake them and send them overseas?
These are awesome tips!!! Thanks so much for sharing them! So glad these were a hit at school :)
Just finished my eight dozen this week! These are a huge hit at home and at school. I have to say a few modifications made them easier to make the second time.
First, I can’t stress enough. Do NOT use Betty Crocker mix!!! It’s like glue! Duncan Hines was so easy to mix and mold. Also the Duncan Hines is much brighter in color.
Second, Pam your bowl before mixing and your hands before molding.
Lastly, if you’re making more than one box mix one box at a time. Otherwise it becomes a stressful mess!
Thanks Amanda! Hope you love them!
I was just searching Pinterest for a strawberry cake mix cookie last weekend! These look great – I can’t wait to make them!
OOOO!!!! Love that idea!! So cute for a baby gift/baby shower.
Great minds think alike! I made something similar for my middle’s teacher who had a baby girl earlier this year with a pink velvet cake mix. Hello, addictive! Love the strawberry flavor and I’m sure I wouldn’t be able to keep my hand out of the cookie jar if these gems were housed inside!
Yes Thanks!
Thank you so much Lexi!
Thanks so much!! Means a lot coming from you :)
I hope they do Kacey! They’re so tasty :)
Thanks Jaren! I do too…SO easy!
I adore cake mix cookies! These look great!
I am really curious if my stores out here have strawberry cake mix. I really want to give these a try!
My kids would go crazy for these! Actually, they would make great treats for their class Valentine’s parties.
LOOKS DELISH!
A 16 ounce cake mix. Hope that helps!
Hmm…Mine stayed in cookie form. Did the cookies turn out? That doesn’t sound quite right but I’m hoping they worked for you!! Let me know!
What size is the cake mix?
hello, I just made these (they’re still in the oven) just noticed the chips wouldn’t stay in the dough, they kept falling out or the dough would just fall apart. Is this normal? I got them into some sort of form but kept wondering if flour would have helped. Excited to taste them though!
Thanks Kelley!!!
How fun! These are perfect for Valentines day for sure!
I’ll take cookies of any kind any day :)
Aw thanks so much Julie! I really appreciate you stopping by and pinning!
Aw thanks Royal! Hope you’re doing well!!
Thanks Ginny!

I love these, Bec. Great job. I also love that they are so versatile. This recipe will be a “keeper”.
