Ingredients
- 1 box angel food cake mix
- 1 cup freeze-dried strawberries
- 0.333 cup water
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 6 pieces fresh strawberries (for garnish, optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
Place the freeze-dried strawberries in a food processor and pulse until finely ground, yielding about 1/2 cup of strawberry powder.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the angel food cake mix and the strawberry powder.
Step 4
Add the water to the dry mixture and gently stir until the batter is smooth and well combined. Avoid overmixing to maintain the light texture.
Step 5
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of cookie batter onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 6
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are slightly golden and the cookies have puffed up.
Step 7
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 8
Once the cookies are cool, dust them generously with powdered sugar for a sweet finish.
Step 9
If desired, garnish each cookie with a small slice of fresh strawberry before serving for an extra burst of flavor and a decorative touch.
