  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: 24 cookies

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, diced

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, cream cheese, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
  • Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
  • Gently fold in the diced strawberries.
  • Drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving 2 inches between each cookie.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden. The centers should still look soft.
  • Allow to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

  • For best results, use room-temperature butter and cream cheese.
  • Feel free to substitute with gluten-free flour if needed.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature or freeze for up to 3 months.
