Ingredients
- 1 box (15.25 ounces) strawberry cake mix
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
Directions
- Prep: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix: In a large mixing bowl, combine the strawberry cake mix, vegetable oil, and eggs. Mix until well blended.
- Scoop: Use a cookie scoop to place the batter evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake: Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the edges begin to brown and the tops start to crack.
- Cool: Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet.
- Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together 1 cup confectioners’ sugar and 5 tablespoons of milk. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cookies using a spoon or piping bag.
- Set: Allow the glaze to set before serving.
Tips
- Ensure the cookies are completely cool before adding the glaze to prevent it from melting.
- Adjust the consistency of the glaze by varying the amount of milk: less for thicker, more for thinner.
FAQs
