Ingredients
- 1 15.25 oz. box strawberry cake mix (see notes for 13.25 oz box)
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 6 tablespoon unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled
- 1 large egg room temperature
- 3 tablespoon neutral oil like canola or other vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice optional, but recommended
- Frosting optional for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together cake mix and salt.
- Mix in melted butter, egg, oil, and lemon juice (if using) until a soft dough forms.
- Scoop roughly 1 ½ tablespoon portions of dough (I use a #40 cookie scoop) and roll into balls.
- Place dough balls about 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheet and gently flatten slightly with the palm of your hand.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes, until the edges are just set, but centers are soft.
- Let cool on baking sheet for a few minutes before moving to wire rack to cool completely.
- Frost cookies and top with sprinkles, if desired.
Notes
- If using a 13.25 oz box of strawberry cake mix, simply reduce melted butter to 5 tablespoon and oil to 2 ½ Tbsp.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
