How to Make Strawberry Delight Crunch Cookies
Step 1:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2:
In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3:
Add in the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
Step 4:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Slowly add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Step 5:
Gently fold in the crushed freeze-dried strawberries. Be careful not to overmix to keep the texture light.
Step 6:
Roll the dough into small balls (about 1 tablespoon each), place them on the prepared baking sheet, and flatten slightly with your fingers.
Step 7:
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are just turning golden. The centers will look slightly underbaked but will firm up as they cool.
Step 8:
While the cookies are cooling, melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, microwaving in 20-second intervals until smooth.
Step 9:
Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the cooled cookies for that perfect finishing touch.
Step 10:
Let the chocolate set before serving. Enjoy your Strawberry Delight Crunch Cookies with a warm cup of tea or a cold glass of milk!
