Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, diced

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Combine Wet Ingredients: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
  5. Blend Dry and Wet Ingredients: Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the butter mixture until just combined.
  6. Add Strawberries: Gently fold in the diced strawberries.
  7. Form Cookies: Drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
  8. Bake: Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to turn golden.
  9. Cool and Serve: Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Dice Strawberries Small: Small pieces work best in these cookies, as they distribute evenly without making the dough too wet.
  • Handle Dough Gently: Be careful when folding in the strawberries to prevent them from releasing too much juice, which could make the cookies soggy.
  • Use Fresh Strawberries: Fresh strawberries provide the best flavor and texture. Avoid using frozen berries, as they release excess moisture when baking.
