Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- ¾ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Fruit
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, finely chopped plus ¼ cup for topping
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate large bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until combined.
- Add Strawberries: Fold the finely chopped strawberries gently into the butter mixture. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix just until incorporated to avoid overworking the dough.
- Shape the Cookies: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and place them onto the sheet about 2 inches apart. Slightly flatten each cookie dough ball and top with a small piece of strawberry for added fruitiness and visual appeal.
- Bake the Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers remain soft. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
Notes
- Use fresh, ripe strawberries for maximum flavor and moisture.
- Chilling the dough for 30 minutes before baking can help prevent spreading if desired.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- You can substitute half the granulated sugar with powdered sugar for a softer texture.
