A simple recipe for soft, chewy drop cookies featuring fresh strawberries.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, finely diced
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Gently fold in the finely diced fresh strawberries and white chocolate chips, if using.
  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. The centers should still look slightly soft.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Dice the strawberries small so they distribute evenly and do not release too much moisture during baking.
  • For a pink color, you can add 1-2 drops of red food coloring to the dough.
  • If you prefer a glaze, mix 1 cup powdered sugar with 2 tablespoons milk and 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract. Drizzle over cooled cookies.
