Ingredients
Scale
- 3/4 cup chopped strawberries
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1/3 cup milk (cold, dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 large egg (cold)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Coarse sugar (optional, for topping)
- 1 cup confectioners’ sugar (for icing)
- 2–3 tablespoons milk or heavy cream (for icing)
- 1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (for icing)
- 1 heaping tablespoon strawberry jam (optional, for icing)
Instructions
- Chop strawberries into small pieces. Blot with a clean towel to remove excess moisture and optionally chill them.
- In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- Add cubed cold butter and cut it into the dry mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, egg, and vanilla extract. Pour into dry ingredients and fold gently to combine.
- Carefully fold in chilled strawberries. Do not overmix.
- Chill the dough for at least 45 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (191°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Scoop dough into tablespoon-sized balls, place on baking sheet, and optionally top with extra strawberries and coarse sugar.
- Bake for 15–16 minutes or until edges are lightly golden.
- Let cookies cool for 5 minutes on the tray before transferring to a wire rack.
- Prepare icing by mixing confectioners’ sugar, milk or cream, vanilla extract, and optional strawberry jam until smooth.
- Once cookies are cooled, drizzle with icing and serve.
Notes
- Blot and chill strawberries to avoid soggy dough.
- Use cold butter and dairy for the best biscuit texture.
- Chill the dough before baking for better flavor and shape.
- Cookies are best enjoyed the day they’re made but can be stored or frozen.
- Drizzle icing just before serving for the freshest presentation.
