Strawberry Cookie Recipe
Description
This Strawberry Cookie Recipe uses softened unsalted butter creamed with sugar and strawberry gelatin powder, then mixed with eggs and vanilla extract for richness and flavor. Dry ingredients include all-purpose flour, white chocolate instant pudding mix, baking soda, and salt, which add moisture, tenderness, and leavening to the dough. White chocolate chips are folded in for bursts of sweetness throughout the cookie.
The dough is portioned into 1½-inch balls using a cookie scoop and baked at 350°F for 9 to 10 minutes. After baking, the cookies rest briefly on the baking sheet before cooling on a rack, yielding cookies with a soft yet slightly crisp edge and a soft interior. The strawberry gelatin adds a distinct flavor and a rosy hue without overwhelming the cookie.
These cookies can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container for up to one week or refrigerated for two weeks. Variations include substituting vanilla instant pudding in place of white chocolate or swapping the strawberry gelatin for other Jell-O flavors such as raspberry or cherry to change the fruit note.
