INGREDIENTS:
For the Cookies:
1 box strawberry cake mix
2 large eggs room temperature
1/4 cup canola or vegetable oil
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
For the Strawberry Lemon Glaze:
2 cups powdered sugar
1/3 cup finely chopped fresh strawberries
1 tablespoon lemon juice
INSTRUCTIONS:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mix the cookie dough: In a large bowl, combine the strawberry cake mix, eggs, oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Shape the cookies: Form 1 tablespoon balls of dough and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake: For 10 minutes, or until the edges start to lightly brown. Do not overbake to ensure cookies remain soft.
Cool: Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Prepare the glaze: Blend the strawberries and lemon juice until smooth. Mix into powdered sugar to create the glaze.
Glaze the cookies: Once cooled, spoon or drizzle the glaze over the cookies. Allow to set before serving.
