These adorable Strawberry Kiss Cookies combine the sweet flavor of strawberry cake mix with the smooth indulgence of chocolate kisses. Soft, chewy, and beautifully pink, these cookies are perfect for any celebration or just a sweet treat!

Ingredients

  1. For the Cookies:
    • Strawberry cake mix (1 box, 15.25 oz): The key ingredient for rich strawberry flavor and the signature pink hue.
    • Vegetable oil (â…“ cup): For a soft and chewy texture.
    • Eggs (2 large): Help bind the dough and give the cookies structure.
    • Vanilla extract (1 teaspoon): Enhances the sweetness and flavor.

    For the Topping:

    1. Chocolate kisses (24, unwrapped): A classic finishing touch for these cookies.
    2. Granulated sugar (¼ cup): For rolling the dough balls, giving the cookies a sweet, crisp outer layer.

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  • Prepare the cookie dough: In a large bowl, combine the strawberry cake mix, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined and a dough forms.
  • Form the cookies: Roll the dough into small balls (about 1 inch in diameter), then roll each ball in granulated sugar.
  • Bake the cookies: Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spaced about 2 inches apart. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the edges are set.
  • Add the chocolate kisses: Immediately after removing the cookies from the oven, press a chocolate kiss into the center of each cookie. Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For a festive touch, dust the cooled cookies with powdered sugar or drizzle with melted chocolate.
  • If you want to make these cookies even more special, add edible glitter or pair them with other colorful desserts like Strawberry Cheesecake Dump Cake.
  • For a sweet and savory balance, serve these cookies alongside Crispy Broccoli Cheese Balls.
