Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper for easy cleanup. (5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

In a medium bowl, gently combine the diced strawberries, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and lemon juice. Stir gently and set aside, allowing the strawberries to macerate slightly. (5 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, 1/2 cup of sugar, baking powder, and salt. (2 minutes)

04

Step
7 mins

Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or two knives until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. The smaller the butter pieces, the flakier the cookies. (7 minutes)

05

Step
3 mins

Gradually stir in the cold heavy cream until the dough just begins to come together. Be careful not to overmix. (3 minutes)

06

Step
2 mins

Gently fold in the strawberry mixture, distributing the strawberries evenly throughout the dough. (2 minutes)

07

Step
5 mins

Drop tablespoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets. (5 minutes)

08

Step
25 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for 23-25 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown around the edges. (25 minutes)

09

Step
10 mins

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. (10 minutes)

For best results, use very cold butter and heavy cream. This will help create a tender and flaky cookie.
Don't overmix the dough! Overmixing develops the gluten in the flour, resulting in tough cookies. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
If you don't have parchment paper, you can lightly grease the baking sheets instead.
These cookies are best enjoyed the day they are baked, but they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
Consider adding a glaze of powdered sugar and milk for extra sweetness.

    Next time, I might try using different berries, like raspberries or blueberries.

    I added a sprinkle of turbinado sugar on top before baking, and it gave them a nice crunch.
