Instructions

How to Make Irresistible Delicious Strawberry Shortcake Crunch Cookies

  • Pulse the Golden Oreos into fine crumbs until you have about 1 cup. Combine with the pulsed freeze-dried strawberries and mix in softened butter until everything is well-coated. Set aside to let the flavors meld.
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) for optimal baking.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the strawberry cake mix, all-purpose flour, and cornstarch.
  • Add the softened butter, butter-flavored shortening, eggs, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until a thick dough forms.
  • Use a ¼ cup scoop to portion the dough onto a lined baking sheet, shaping the scoops into disc-like cookies. Bake them for 11-13 minutes.
  • Once baked, let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheet.
  • In a medium bowl, beat together the cream cheese, softened butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk until the frosting is thick yet spreadable.
  • Generously spread the frosting on the cooled cookies and top each one with the reserved Strawberry Crunch Topping.

Notes

Optional: Garnish with fresh strawberries for added color and flavor.
