Strawberry Cake Mix Cookies Recipe
Description
This recipe blends softened butter, cream cheese, and an egg, then incorporates strawberry cake mix to form a smooth cookie dough. Chilling the dough briefly firms it for easier shaping. The dough is portioned with a cookie scoop, rolled into balls, then dipped or rolled in powdered sugar for a sweet outer coating that bakes into a delicate crust.
After baking for about 12-13 minutes, the cookies are soft with a tender crumb and mild strawberry essence. Lightly pressing the tops before baking produces a somewhat flattened shape for even cooking. Optionally, additional powdered sugar can be dusted on the cookies after baking for extra sweetness and visual appeal.
Ingredients
- ½ cup butter softened
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1 egg
- 1 Strawberry Cake Mix box mix
- ½ cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- With a hand mixer, beat butter, egg, and cream cheese until fluffy. Add in cake mix and beat until smooth.
- Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- Add ½ cup powdered sugar to a small bowl. Use a medium cookie scoop to scoop out dough and roll it into balls. Dip in powdered sugar. Place on a greased cookie sheet and lightly press the tops to flatten them a bit.
- Bake for 12-13 minutes. After removing from the oven, sift the tops of the cookies with powdered sugar if desired.
