Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar (packed)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup dried strawberries (chopped)
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the chopped dried strawberries and semi-sweet chocolate chips.
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the center is set.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- (Optional) Once the cookies have cooled, melt some extra chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring in between. Dip the cookies halfway into the melted chocolate and place them on parchment paper to set.
Notes
- For a more intense strawberry flavor, use freeze-dried strawberries instead of dried strawberries.
- If you prefer a sweeter chocolate dip, use milk chocolate chips or a combination of milk and semi-sweet chocolate.
- These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
