Strawberry Cookies are soft, chewy, and full of fresh strawberry flavor. These pretty pink treats are perfect for spring, summer, or any festive occasion, and can be customized with mix-ins like white chocolate chips or a sweet glaze.

Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup strawberry purée or finely chopped fresh strawberries
  • Optional: 1/2 cup freeze-dried strawberries or white chocolate chips
  • Optional: pink or red food coloring
  • Optional glaze: 1/2 cup powdered sugar + 1–2 tsp milk or strawberry juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the egg, vanilla extract, and strawberry purée. Mix until smooth. Add food coloring if desired.
  5. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined.
  6. Fold in optional freeze-dried strawberries or white chocolate chips.
  7. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are just set. Centers may appear slightly soft.
  9. Let cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Optional: Drizzle cooled cookies with glaze or dust with powdered sugar.

Notes

Use finely chopped fresh strawberries or strawberry purée for natural flavor and moisture.Chill the dough for 30 minutes if it feels too soft to prevent spreading.Add a few drops of food coloring for a brighter pink hue.Store cookies in a single layer if glazed, or let glaze set completely before stacking.Strawberry extract can boost flavor if using milder strawberries.
