Description
Make simple, delicious drop cookies featuring the classic combination of fresh strawberries and chocolate chips. This recipe is straightforward for any skill level.
Ingredients
Scale
- 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 fresh strawberries, finely chopped
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the 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 bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in the chopped fresh strawberries and the chocolate chips.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Ensure your strawberries are patted dry after chopping to prevent the cookie dough from becoming too wet.
- If you prefer a chewier cookie, chill the dough for 30 minutes before scooping.
- Use high-quality chocolate chips for the best flavor.
