These Strawberry and Cream Cookies have such a strong strawberry flavor with a sweet hint from white chocolate. Chewy, soft, delicious and easy to make!
These cookies are SO good and so tasty. We canโt go and put real fresh strawberries and cookies because then theyโll be all soggy and gross. Thatโs where freeze-dried strawberries come into play. They are delicious and pack a huge strawberry flavor punch. And the โcreamโ comes from the white chocolate.
I used to give white chocolate some major side-eye but now Iโm warming up to it, trying to like it. I think context is everything and in these cookies, the white chocolate is good. In other thingsโฆmeh. Weโll see.
Ingredients for Strawberry and Cream Cookies
- All-purpose flour. Pretty standard flour that will yield a chewy, sturdy cookie
- Baking powder and baking soda. These cookies have both baking powder and baking soda. Baking powder makes gives them a nice lift and baking soda gives them color and spreads.
- Kosher salt. Of course, you need salt to balance the sweet.
- Butter. These cookies use melted butter which makes them easy to whip up at a moments notice.
- Brown sugar. Gives these cookies a nice chewy quality.
- Granulated sugar. The granulated sugar gives these cookies moistness, allows them to spread and contributes to their chewy texture.
- Eggs. These give these cookies a bit of height and binds all of the ingredients together.
- Freeze Dried Strawberries. I LOVE baking with freeze dried strawberries. They have a super potent strawberry flavor and are so easy to incorporate in all sorts of baked goods.
- White Chocolate Chips. This type of chocolate is sweet, mellow and compliments the strawberries and cookies in a super lovely way.
