Strawberry Crinkle Cookies
My favorite thing about cake mix cookies are the many different flavors you can make with one box of cake mix. Some of our favorites are our funfetti cake mix cookies, double chocolate, lemon, and red velvet cookies. These strawberry crinkle cookies are delicious and get eaten quickly – they are our one of our top favorite cookies and are much enjoyed with their sweet insides and lightly dusted tops with powdered sugar.
Tips for Making Cake Mix Cookies
Can I freeze cake mix cookies?
Yes! Growing up my mom would make cake mix cookies and package one in a ziploc baggie, which was a fun and yummy lunch time dessert. By the time it was time to eat lunch at school our cookie had thawed. 🙂 Be sure to let your cookies cool completely on the counter before you place them in the freezer.
My cookie dough is sticky, what can I do?
Depending on the cake mix brand you use some batters can be a tad stickier than others. If you cookie dough is too sticky to roll with your hands I like to use a fork to place it in the powdered sugar. Once it has a small amount of powdered sugar on them it’s typically much easier to roll them in your hands. You can also refrigerate your cookie dough for 30 minutes which helps make them less sticky as well.
How can I tell my cookie is done baking?
You definitely don’t want to over bake your cookies as just slightly under baking them is what gives them their soft insides. I typically bake mine for about 9-10 minutes but every oven varies. Typically once they start cracking they are ready to come out of the oven. They will continue to bake while they cool on the baking sheet. If you want your cookies to be slightly flatter you can lightly press a glass on top as soon as the cookies come out of the oven.

Where can I buy this box of strawberry cake mix?
One of my favorite cookies! I’m doing a bake sale for charity and added these to my menu. They’re one of my best sellers!
So is it 375 or 350?
Can you swap out vegetable or olive oil for the canola oil? They look delicious!
What temperature should these be baked at? The blog post says 375, but the instructions say 350.

Hi There! I honestly have no idea! 🙂 This is a recipe my mother in law always uses when making all kinds of cake mix cookies varieties. It works with any flavor! I’m sure this recipe has been around for years and is in many households 🙂
Yummy! I love how easy this is. I’ve been doing a lot of baking since we have to stay at home now! The powdered sugar is a wonderful touch.
Really love how the strawberry flavor comes out and how simple these are to make!
These cookies are super easy and super yummy! My kiddos like to make them.
