Ingredients
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons fresh strawberry puree
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup sugar (for rolling)
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and 1 cup sugar until light and fluffy (about 3 minutes).
-
Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, and strawberry puree until fully combined.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
-
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Roll each ball in the remaining 1/4 cup sugar to coat.
-
Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Gently press each ball with the back of a spoon to flatten slightly.
-
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
-
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Fresh strawberry puree gives the cookies a unique flavor, but you can substitute with store-bought strawberry jam or preserve if needed.
Ensure that the butter is softened for easy mixing and a smoother texture.
These cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to one week.
