Ingredients

Scale

Fresh Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh ripe strawberries, chopped into small pieces
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened or melted

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Sugars

  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Strawberries: Start by washing and drying fresh strawberries thoroughly. Chop them into small pieces to ensure even distribution throughout the cookie dough and prevent sogginess.
  2. Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, cream together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla extract until smooth and fully combined.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add these dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until incorporated to avoid a dense cookie.
  4. Fold in Strawberries and White Chocolate: Gently fold in the chopped strawberries and white chocolate chips, making sure they are evenly distributed without breaking up the fruit too much.
  5. Chill the Dough: Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to help the cookies hold their shape during baking and intensify flavor.
  6. Bake Your Cookies: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Scoop dough onto a lined baking sheet, spacing each spoonful adequately. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are lightly golden and centers look set.
  7. Cool and Enjoy: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking tray for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature for maximum enjoyment.

Notes

  • Use fresh strawberries for the best texture; avoid dried or frozen unless thawed and drained.
  • Don’t overmix the dough to ensure soft and chewy cookies rather than tough ones.
  • Chill the dough to prevent cookies from spreading too much during baking.
  • Remove cookies just before they appear fully baked for a soft, chewy center.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container to maintain freshness and moisture.
