These Strawberries and Cream Cookies are soft, chewy, and bursting with the sweet-tart flavor of freeze-dried strawberries, creamy white chocolate chips, and a hint of crunchy graham cracker crumbs. A truly irresistible treat!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened

  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar

  • 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1 cup white chocolate chips

  • 1 cup freeze-dried strawberries, roughly chopped

  • 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs (or crushed graham crackers)

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, cream together softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  • In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  • Gently fold in the white chocolate chips, chopped freeze-dried strawberries, and graham cracker crumbs until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  • Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  • Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft. Do not overbake.
  • Remove from oven and let cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days.

Notes

    • Chill Factor: If your dough feels too soft or your kitchen is warm, a quick 20-30 minute chill in the fridge can help prevent your cookies from spreading too much. It’s a game-changer for chewy centers!
    • Strawberry Punch: For an extra burst of strawberry flavor and color right on top, press a few extra chopped freeze-dried strawberries onto the cookies immediately after they come out of the oven. It makes them look insanely yummy!
    • Graham Cracker Love: Don’t skip the graham cracker crumbs! They add a subtle, nostalgic sweetness and a lovely texture that perfectly complements the strawberries and cream. If you don’t have crumbs, just crush a few sheets of graham crackers finely.
