Strawberry Cookies

My husband ran to the grocery store and picked up buy one get one free strawberry. I also had picked up some from Costco. We had so many strawberries, so I was trying to figure out what to make with all of the ones I had. I was thinking of breakfast bread or some cookies.

We decided to have a little get together at our house. I said I would make a dessert, so it made it the most convenient time to make some of these fresh strawberry cookies.

Best decision because the first batch disappeared in less than 24-hours. Two days later, after going back to work from a 4-day weekend, I decided it was time to make them again before they go bad. My dad was here this time, and he even got to be a taste tester.

Were fresh strawberries used to make Strawberry cookies?

Yes, I do not recommend frozen for the following recipes due to frozen berries will not provide the correct consistency.

How to make Strawberry Cookies from Scratch:

Notes

Do not melt the butter and add in hot. You just want the butter softened and at room temperature.

How to make Strawberry Cookies with Cake Mix:

You’ll need the following: Cake mix (Vanilla cake mix (18.25oz) is the best!), two eggs (size large), and ½ cup of oil (I used vegetable oil). Then 1 ½ cups of sliced strawberries.

Mix the ingredients together in a large bowl until smooth before adding in the strawberries. Then mix in until evenly incorporated.

Using a spoon scoop portions of the dough onto prepared cookie sheets two inches apart.

Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, or until lightly golden on the edges for the cookies.

Allow the cookies to cool on a baking sheet for approximately 3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

What type of flour is best?

I have made them with either bleached white flour or whole wheat flour. Both taste good!
