Ingredients
Scale
Fruits and Mix-ins
- 1 cup fresh ripe strawberries, washed and diced
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
Dry Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare the Strawberries: Wash and dice fresh strawberries into small pieces to ensure even distribution throughout the dough without adding excess moisture.
- Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large bowl, beat softened butter with granulated and brown sugars until the mixture is light and fluffy, creating the perfect base for soft cookies.
- Add Egg and Vanilla: Mix in the egg and vanilla extract thoroughly to bind ingredients and enrich the flavor.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt for an even rise and texture.
- Mix Dry and Wet Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined to avoid overmixing which can toughen the cookies.
- Fold in Strawberries and White Chocolate: Carefully fold diced strawberries and white chocolate chips into the dough, ensuring even distribution without crushing the berries.
- Scoop and Bake: Drop portions of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet using a cookie scoop or spoon, spacing them well. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden and centers are set but still soft.
Notes
- Keep strawberries dry by patting them before adding to prevent sogginess.
- Chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking to reduce spreading and enhance flavor.
- Remove cookies as soon as edges are set but centers still appear soft to maintain chewiness.
- Use fresh white chocolate chips that are not bloomed or discolored for best results.
- Fold fruits and chips gently to keep dough light and berries intact.
