Every so often, I find myself in the terrible predicament of strawberries going bad. An entire carton of strawberries going bad in the fridge is a horrible thing.

And sometimes, the solution is cookies. Strawberry cookies.

Strawberry cookies have a bit less sugar than ordinary cookies, but the sweetness and goodness of strawberries – and maybe a bit of chocolate!

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup Butter softened
• 4 oz Cream Cheese or Farmers Cheese
• 3/4 cup Sugar
• 1 whole Egg
• 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
• 1 1/4 cup Flour all purpose
• 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
• 1 dash Salt
• 1 tbsp Flour
• 1 1/2 cup Strawberries chopped
• 1 cup Chocolate Chips optional

Servings: cookies

Instructions

1. Chop up your strawberries into nice small cookie-sized chunks. Lightly cover with a tbsp of flour. This will keep them from sticking together too badly.
2. Cream together your butter, cream cheese, and sugar. Add egg and vanilla. Mix.
3. Add your dry ingredients - flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
4. Carefully fold in your floured strawberries. Mix in chocolate chips, if desired.
5. Place heaping tablespoons of cookie dough on a cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes, or until light brown.

Recipe Notes

This recipe was inspired by Strawberry Cookies with White Chocolate Chunks. You could, of course, add white chocolate to this recipe too, though I generally make the cookies without chocolate chips and they taste wonderful.
