Strawberry cookies
After we went strawberry picking (14 lbs) the eldest boy wanted strawberry cookies. So after back and forth I summoned the awesome power of the Internet to fetch me forth a recipe.
This is that recipe!
- .5 C softened butter
- .5 C brown sugar
- .25 C +2T sugar
- .5 t vanilla
- 1 egg
- .25 t baking soda
- 1.25 C flour
- .5 t salt
- .5 lb strawberries
- 2T sugar
Mix through vanilla, add egg. Add dry ingredients and mix gently. Slice strawberries and sprinkle with sugar
dry strawberries with paper towels. I missed that step and they never quite set right.
Spoon onto lined baking sheets, bake at 350 for 10 minutes, give or take
Original recipe says to rotate pan on the middle. Also says to eat them soon as they’ll get soggy. Since I didn’t dry the berries, they started a little soggy so I can’t speak to that. But it’s only about 24-30 cookies, so my kids didn’t let them survive the night
Recipe: Simple, straightforward.
Difficulty: Biggest issue is drying the strawberries, and even that’s not complicated just not something you think of
Price: In season only. Out of season, I think the strawberries would make this too expensive. But since we picked them ourselves, this was fairly cheap. I’d say maybe 5$ for the two dozen.
