Strawberry Shortcake Cookies

Strawberry shortcake cookies are a delightful twist on a classic dessert, combining the best features of soft, buttery cookies with the sweet, refreshing flavours of strawberry shortcake. These cookies are infused with hints of vanilla, providing a perfect base for the luscious whipped cream that crowns them. Topped with fresh strawberry slices, they offer a vibrant burst of colour and a juicy sweetness that complements the cookies beautifully. Each bite is a harmonious blend of textures—crispy edges give way to a tender centre, all while the creamy topping and succulent strawberries meld together for a deliciously enjoyable treat.

Baking Tips:

  • Don’t overmix: Avoid overmixing your cookie dough once you gently fold the flour in, as excessive mixing can lead to tough and dry cookies. Keeping the dough light and airy is essential for achieving the perfect cookie that melts in your mouth.

  • Don’t overbake: Only bake these delicious cookies until the edges have a faint hint of golden brown; if you happen to overbake them even slightly, they will run the risk of quickly becoming dry and losing their delightful softness that makes them so enjoyable.

  • Allow cookies to cool fully: Ensure that your cookies have cooled completely and thoroughly before you proceed to top them with your delightful toppings, or else the whipped cream will melt away quickly and create a horrible, sticky mess that no one really wants to deal with!
