Step-by-Step Instructions for Strawberry Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (355°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and freeze-dried strawberry powder.
  3. In a stand mixer, cream together the room temperature unsalted butter and white granulated sugar until creamy and lighter in color.
  4. Add in the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture, mixing until incorporated. Add food coloring if desired.
  5. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients on the lowest speed until just combined.
  6. Form the dough into 16 even balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving space for spreading.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-11 minutes until puffed and slightly golden at the edges.
  8. Remove the tray and drop it firmly onto the counter 2-3 times to create the crinkly top.
  9. Transfer cookies to a cooling rack to cool completely before repeating the process with the second batch.
