Ingredients
Method
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cream the Cheeses: In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the softened cream cheese and butter until smooth and well combined. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
Add Sugars & Egg: Beat in the granulated sugar and brown sugar until fluffy, approximately 3 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until just combined.
Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until the batter is just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in Strawberries: Gently fold in the chopped strawberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
Scoop the Dough: Using a medium cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden while the centers remain soft. Keep an eye on them because baking times can vary.
Cool Down: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Dust with Sugar (Optional): Once cooled, lightly dust the cookies with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness and presentation.
Enjoy your delightful Strawberry Cream Cheese Cookies, soft, chewy, and irresistibly delectable!
