Cookie Dough:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Additional Mix-Ins:
- 1 cup freeze-dried strawberries, crushed
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 4 oz cream cheese, chilled and cut into small cubes
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each, then mix in the vanilla extract.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined.
- Add Mix-Ins: Gently fold in the crushed freeze-dried strawberries, white chocolate chips, and cream cheese cubes.
- Bake: Scoop dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart. Bake for 10–12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set.
- Cool: Let cookies cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Keep the cream cheese cubes cold before mixing to prevent melting into the dough.
- For a stronger strawberry flavor, add a teaspoon of strawberry extract or use strawberry-flavored white chocolate chips.
