Ingredients
Scale
Cookie Dough
- 1 box strawberry cake mix
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon corn starch
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Prepare Wet Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil until fully combined. Set aside to use later.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the strawberry cake mix, corn starch, and baking powder. Stir to evenly distribute the leavening and starch within the cake mix.
- Mix Wet and Dry: Pour the egg mixture into the bowl containing the dry ingredients. Stir thoroughly until the batter is smooth and free of lumps, forming a cohesive dough.
- Add White Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the white chocolate chips to the dough, ensuring they are evenly dispersed without overmixing.
- Chill the Dough (Optional): For best results and easier handling, cover and refrigerate the dough for 1 hour. This step helps the cookies maintain their shape while baking.
- Preheat Oven: Set your oven to preheat at 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking.
- Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray it with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Shape Cookies: Form the dough into small balls using your hands, then gently press each ball with your palms to flatten slightly, shaping the cookies.
- Bake: Place the shaped cookies on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, until set and lightly golden on the edges.
- Cool: Remove the cookies from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
Notes
- Refrigerating the dough for 1 hour is optional but recommended for better texture and easier shaping.
- Use parchment paper on the baking sheet for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.
- Allow cookies to cool completely on a wire rack to set their shape and avoid crumbling.
- Store cookies in an airtight container to keep them fresh for up to a week.
- You can substitute white chocolate chips with regular or milk chocolate chips for a different flavor.
