Pina Colada White Chocolate Cookies
Pina Colada White Chocolate Cookies are crazy good! Seriously, you can’t beat a simple 5-ingredient cookie that tastes as great as this. 🙂 These adorable cookies start with a Pineapple Supreme cake mix. That makes these cookies a lot less complicated. I added eggs, oil, coconut and white chocolate chips. NOT vanilla chips. But REAL white chocolate chips. They just exploded with flavor and deliciousness.

Every now and then it’s time to restock my freezer with cookies. My husband gives cookies out every where he goes. About six years ago, he asked me if I would bake up cookies for some friends he was going to visit. From that time on, I’ve tried to keep my freezer stocked with plastic containers of cookies, brownies or bars. I decided to make several kinds of cake mix cookies, including my favorite Strawberry White Chocolate Cookies. To this day, every time we give out a batch of those cookies, everyone raves over them.
I used the same basic concept with this Pina Colada version. They turned out so well. Especially if you enjoy the flavors of coconut and pineapple. These cookies will just make your heart sing. 🙂 The nice thing about these cookies is they can be whipped up in about 5 minutes. It only takes about 5 minutes longer to roll them and put them on cookie sheets. They bake in about 15 minutes. Yes, in about 30 minutes you have a delicious dessert that’s terrific for tailgating parties, potlucks, backyard barbecues or even baby showers.
Pina Colada White Chocolate Cookies will just dissolve in your mouth. Before you know it, you’ll find you’ve downed three or four with a glass of milk. The next time you need a quick and easy dessert, give these luscious cookies a try.
Pina Colada White Chocolate Cookies are heavenly.
White Chocolate Chips really amp up the flavor in these scrumptious cookies.
You’ll be drooling over every bite!
Here’s what I did.
I used these ingredients.
Pour cake mix into a mixing bowl. Add eggs and oil.
Stir ingredients to combine.
Add coconut and white chocolate chips. NOT vanilla chips.
Stir ingredients again to combine.
Roll dough into balls and place on cookie sheets that have been sprayed well with cooking spray. I had to keep my hands slightly moist while rolling.
Bake 13-15 minutes at 350 or until done. (My cookies actually took about 18 minutes because I was baking three pans at once). Rotate pans every 6-7 minutes.
Pina Colada White Chocolate Cookies are terrific for tailgating parties, potlucks, backyard barbecues and grilling out with friends.
This is a great dessert to make when you’re short on time.
Pina Colada White Chocolate Cookies are great for holiday baking too. They’re so quick and easy and take so few ingredients.

Oh so wonderful. Before I cooked them I made a dent in the top of each cookie and added a cherry. I baked for 16 minutes. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Grab a glass of milk and don’t tell the family you made cookies today 🙂

Hi! I’m wondering what the texture is like? Is it chewy like a real cookie, or simply more cakey?

Hi Samantha. It’s chewy like a real cookie.

I love coconut but some others don’t because of the texture (stringy). Do you think chopping it up in the blender to make it fine will ruin the texture of the cookie or the taste? Janice Wilson

Hi, Janice. I don’t think it would hurt it, yet you still maintain the coconut flavor. Another option would be to add coconut extract instead.
