Ingredients

  • 3 cups freeze-dried strawberries
  • 2 sticks salted butter at room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 unit egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/3 cup high-quality strawberry jam
  • 2 ounces cream cheese
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup hot milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure even baking.
  • In a food processor, pulse the freeze-dried strawberries until they reach a fine powder consistency. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the room temperature salted butter with granulated sugar using a hand mixer or stand mixer until light and fluffy.
  • Add the egg and 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat until well combined.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, kosher salt, and powdered freeze-dried strawberries.
  • Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  • Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each cookie.
  • Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
  • In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar, hot milk, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix until creamy and well-blended.
  • Once the cookies are completely cooled, spread a generous layer of cream cheese frosting on top of each cookie. Drizzle some strawberry jam over the frosting for an extra touch.
  • Your Double Strawberry Sugar Cookies are now ready to be enjoyed! Serve them at a gathering or keep them all to yourself—they're that good!
