The entire ingredient list and recipe instructions are at the bottom.
Recipe Variations
- Change the Chocolate Chips – Use milk chocolate chips instead of white chocolate.
- Change the Cake Mix – Substitute chocolate cake mix, or a yellow cake mix for the strawberry cake mix. You can also use white cake mix and dye it with red food coloring.
- Add Sprinkles – Add sprinkles to the cookies to make them even more festive. Red sugar sprinkles are so pretty! I would add ½ cup of sprinkles to the batter before baking.
- Ice the Cookies โ You can top the cookies with icing for added flavor.
- Cookie Sandwiches โ Make a cookie sandwich with frosting in the middle.
- Powdered Sugar โ Dust the tops of the Valentine’s Day Cookies with powdered sugar.
- Vanilla Extract. Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the batter.
- Dip the cookies. Melt chocolate and dip half the cookie in white chocolate or milk chocolate.
How to Make Valentines Day Cake Mix Cookies
- Step 1 – First, preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Step 2. Combine the cake mix, eggs and oil together in a large mixing bowl. The batter will be thick, but this is normal. You can use an electric mixer, but I prefer to just mix by hand.
Step 3. Next, add in the white chocolate chips. Fold into the batter with a wooden spoon.
Step 4. I like to use a cookie scoop to scoop out the cookies or you can use a tablespoon. Then place the dough balls on a lined cookie sheet. Bake for about 8 minutes or until slightly brown on the edges. The candy will bake into the top of the cookies perfectly.
Step 5. Allow the batch of pink cookies to cool completely on a wire rack and then serve.
Recipe Tips
- Cookie Scoop โ We recommend using a cookie scoop to start the dough into balls. This way the cookie dough balls are about the same size.
- Cooling Cookies โ To cool the cookies before serving, place on a cooling rack.
- Line Baking Sheet โ For easy cleanup and to easily remove cookies for baking pan, line baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- Cake Mix Ingredients โ When making this cake, you only need the 4 ingredients listed. There is no need to add the ingredients from the cake mix box when making valentine cake mix cookies.
