Ingredients
Strawberry Shortcake Cookies
- 2½ cups all-purpose baking mix
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup half and half
- 4 tablespoons salted butter melted
- 1 cup chopped strawberries
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- coarse raw cane sugar (optional)
Glaze
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1–2 tablespoons half and half
Instructions
1. Prep your oven and pans
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper. This helps prevent sticking and makes for easy cleanup.
2. Mix the dry ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose baking mix and granulated sugar. This helps distribute the sugar evenly throughout the dough.
3. Add the wet ingredients
Pour in the half-and-half and melted butter, then stir until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix—just combine everything until there are no dry spots left.
4. Gently fold in the strawberries and chocolate chips
Now for the best part! Add the chopped strawberries and white chocolate chips, stirring gently. Strawberries can be delicate and might bleed into the dough, so mix just until incorporated.
5. Scoop and shape the cookies
Using a medium cookie scoop (or about 1½ tablespoons of dough), drop the cookies onto your prepared baking sheets. If you like a little extra crunch, sprinkle some coarse cane sugar on top.
6. Bake to golden perfection
Pop the cookies into the oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are lightly golden brown. They’ll still be soft in the center, but they’ll firm up as they cool.
7. Cool before glazing
Let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
8. Drizzle on the glaze
Mix the powdered sugar and half-and-half until you get a smooth, pourable consistency. Using a fork or spoon, drizzle the glaze over the cooled cookies. Let it set for a few minutes before digging in!
Notes
How to serve these cookies in style
These cookies are beautiful on their own, but if you’re feeling fancy, serve them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of freshly whipped cream. For a brunch spread, pair them with fresh berries and a dusting of powdered sugar.
