Have you ever had one of those days where you just need something sweet right now Well, that was me last Friday when I was rummaging through the pantry while my hair was in a messy bun and I had zero motivation to bake from scratch. That’s when I saw it—half a box of strawberry cake mix just staring at me. Was it fate or was it laziness Hhhh Honestly, probably both.

I wish I could say I followed some fancy recipe but let’s be real—it was more of a “just toss it all in and hope for the best” kind of moment. It only took three ingredients and somehow these cookies turned out soft so chewy and full of strawberry flavor. They were like pink little clouds of joy.

I made them I burned half the batch because classic me. The ones that survived didn’t last long since they were gone in ten minutes. My nephew even asked if I got them from a bakery so of course I lied and said yes.

If you’ve never baked cookies with just three ingredients then you’re in for a treat.

Now let’s get into it.

Ingredients :

1 box of strawberry cake mix
2 large eggs
1/3 cup vegetable oil

Optional but fun add-ins:

1/2 cup white chocolate chips
Rainbow sprinkles
Mini marshmallows

How to Make 3-ingredient Strawberry Cake Mix Cookies

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Mix the ingredients – In a large bowl, pour in the strawberry cake mix. Crack in the eggs and add the oil. Use a spoon or hand mixer to mix everything together until the dough is thick and sticky. If adding in any extras like chocolate chips, stir them in now!

Step 2

Scoop the dough – Use a spoon or cookie scoop to scoop out balls of dough and place them about 2 inches apart on the baking sheet. The cookies will spread, so don’t crowd them!

Bake for 10–12 minutes. Keep an eye on them—you want the edges set but the centers soft.

Step 3

Cool on the baking sheet for 2–3 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

That’s it your cookies are ready to enjoy!
