Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups freeze-dried strawberries
  • 1 cup salted butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/3 cup strawberry jam
  • 2 oz cream cheese
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup hot milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (for icing)

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Mixing bowls
  • Hand or stand mixer
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper

Method
 

  1. Using a blender, pulverize the freeze-dried strawberries into a fine powder.
  2. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. Cream butter, sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy. Add egg, then gradually mix in flour, baking soda, part of the strawberry powder, and salt. Finally, mix in the strawberry jam.
  4. Roll dough into balls and place on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Bake for 8 minutes. Lightly tap the baking sheet to flatten cookies, then bake an additional 2–3 minutes.
  6. Combine cream cheese, powdered sugar, hot milk, vanilla extract, and remaining strawberry powder to make icing. Adjust thickness with more milk if needed.
  7. Dip cooled cookies into the icing or drizzle over the tops.

Notes

For extra strawberry flavor, sprinkle additional strawberry powder on top of the icing.
