Strawberry Shortcake Cookies


Craving some strawberry shortcake? This is my quickie version. So tasty. So easy.

Ingredients:
  • 1 white cake mix
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 c. oil
  • some powder sugar, about 1/4 c. (for rolling cookies in)
  • strawberries, as much as you want, chopped into tiny bits
  • Optional: whipped cream or cool whip
Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Combine cake mix, oil, and eggs together until thoroughly moistened.
  3. Roll into 1 inch balls, then roll in the powder sugar till all covered.
  4. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. Gently press each cookie ball with the bottom of a cup.
  5. Bake for 7-9 minutes. They should puff up a bit and should get a cracked look from the powder sugar.
  6. Cool on a wire rack, then top with whipped cream and strawberries. Enjoy!
Notes about this recipe:

1. I actually haven't tried them with the whipped cream yet. I'm sure it is delish. It's super tasty (and less unhealthy) with just the strawberries on top too.
2. I wouldn't top them until they are about to be eaten. Keeps the cookie from getting soggy and toppings stay fresher.
