Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 15.25 oz. strawberry cake mix (432 grams, 1 box, such as Betty Crocker)
- 1 tsp baking powder (4 grams)
Wet Ingredients
- 2 large eggs (100 grams)
- â…“ cup vegetable oil (67 grams)
- ½ tsp pure vanilla extract (2 grams)
Add-ins
- 1 cup white chocolate chips (170 grams)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper to prevent sticking and set them aside.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the strawberry cake mix and baking powder evenly to ensure your cookies rise uniformly.
- Whisk Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well blended and smooth.
- Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredient bowl. Stir thoroughly with a spoon until a dough forms, making sure all components are fully incorporated. Gently fold in the white chocolate chips evenly throughout the dough.
- Form Cookies: Using a small portion scoop or spoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets. Since the cookies spread out substantially during baking, shape them to be taller than wide, and space them well apart to prevent merging.
- Bake Cookies: Bake the cookies at 350°F for 9-10 minutes. Avoid browning them; they should appear slightly undercooked upon removal, as they will continue to firm and flatten while cooling. For an attractive finish, sprinkle extra white chocolate chips on top right after baking.
- Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for at least 10 minutes to set their texture before serving or transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
- Do not overbake to maintain the soft and chewy texture; cookies will firm up while cooling.
- Using parchment paper helps prevent sticking and makes cleanup easier.
- Additional white chocolate chips on top after baking enhance the cookies’ appearance and add extra creaminess.
- Make sure to space the cookie dough balls well apart as they spread significantly during baking.
