Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Dough
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened Can substitute with coconut oil for a dairy-free version.
  • 1 cup granulated sugar Brown sugar can be used for a richer flavor.
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour Whole wheat flour can be substituted.
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup diced strawberries Fresh is best, but frozen can be used if thawed and drained.
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar For optional dusting before serving.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in the diced strawberries, being careful not to overwork the dough.
  6. Drop spoonfuls of the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them out to allow for spreading.
Baking
  1. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the cookies are cooked through.
  2. Let them cool slightly on the baking sheet, then dust with powdered sugar if desired before serving.

Notes

Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week. For longer storage, consider freezing the cookies for up to 3 months.
