how to make Strawberry Milkshake Cookies
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use a nonstick sheet.
- In a large bowl, pour in the strawberry cake mix.
- Add the eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Stir with a spoon until the dough looks smooth.
- Add baking powder and corn starch. Mix until the dough is even.
- Fold in the white chocolate chips by hand so they spread through the dough.
- Use a spoon or cookie scoop to drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the baking sheet. Leave space between cookies.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges set and the top looks slightly firm.
- Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then move them to a wire rack to cool fully.
Ingredients :
- 1 box strawberry cake mix (this forms the base, infusing your cookies with that delightful strawberry flavor.)

- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (enhances the overall flavor profile, complementing the strawberry essence.)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder (helps the cookies rise, creating a fluffy interior.)
- 1 tablespoon corn starch (contributes to a tender bite, making them melt-in-your-mouth delicious.)
