Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box (15.25 oz) strawberry cake mix
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar (for rolling)

24 chocolate kisses, unwrapped

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the strawberry cake mix, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls.
  4. Roll each dough ball in powdered sugar until fully coated.
  5. Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  6. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies are set but still soft in the center.
  7. Remove from the oven and immediately press a chocolate kiss into the center of each cookie.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

 

 

Notes

  • Chocolate Kiss Options: Try different flavors like milk chocolate, dark chocolate, white chocolate, or strawberry crème kisses for unique variations.
  • Chilling the Dough: If your dough feels too soft, chill it for 15–20 minutes to prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
  • Storage Tips: Keep cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5–7 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
  • For Extra Softness: Place a small slice of white bread in the storage container to keep cookies fresh longer.
  • Alternative Coatings: Instead of powdered sugar, roll the cookies in colored sugar or sprinkles for a festive touch.
  • Gluten-Free Option: Use a gluten-free strawberry cake mix to make these cookies suitable for gluten-free diets.
