Ingredients
  

Cookie Dough
  • 1 box strawberry cake mix
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
Frosting
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp butter softened
  • 1-2 tbsp milk

Equipment

  • Electric Mixer
  • Spatula
  • Cookie Scoop
  • Baking Sheet
  • Oven
  • Cooling Rack

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet. Prepare for even baking.
  2. Mix cake mix, eggs, and oil until soft dough forms. Keep texture smooth.
  3. Scoop dough onto baking sheet, spacing evenly for slight spreading.
  4. Bake until edges set and centers remain soft. Cool completely before frosting.
  5. Mix frosting ingredients until smooth, then spread generously over cooled cookies.

Notes

For softer cookies, bake slightly less. For crisp edges, extend baking time. Chill cookies before frosting for cleaner application. Add flavor extracts or sprinkles for variation. Store in airtight container in fridge up to three days.
