Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Cookie Ingredients
  • 1 box strawberry cake mix
  • 2 large eggs
  • ⅓ cup vegetable oil
Filling Ingredients
  • 1 cup whipped cream cheese (or regular cream cheese)
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Fresh strawberries, chopped (optional) Highly recommended for that extra oomph!
  • Sprinkles (optional) For sparkle!

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the strawberry cake mix, eggs, and vegetable oil. Mix until everything is well combined.
  3. Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop rounded mounds of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Give them some space to spread out.
Baking
  1. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes or until they are just set.
  2. Allow the cookies to cool for about 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Filling and Assembly
  1. In the meantime, beat together the whipped cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. If you’re feeling adventurous, fold in some chopped strawberries.
  2. Take one cookie, spread a generous amount of the cream cheese filling on the flat side, and then top it off with another cookie. Roll the edges in sprinkles if desired.
Enjoy
  1. Grab a glass of milk or your favorite beverage, get comfy, and enjoy these delightful cookies!

Notes

If your dough feels too sticky, consider chilling it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before baking. Store baked cookies in an airtight container; they last for 3-4 days. You can also freeze cookies without the filling.
