Recipe: $3.57 | Per Serving: $0.10 | Yields: 36 cookies

Every bite of these soft and chewy strawberries and cream cookies packs wonderful flavors ranging from the creamy white chocolate chips to the sweet bites of the strawberry preserve.
Serve up a handful of these strawberry cream cookies with a glass of cold milk, and you have yourself a nice comforting treat.
We love strawberries around here and while we're usually serving them up fresh in recipes like Fresh Strawberry Pie, Rustic Strawberry Galette, and Bakery Style Strawberry Muffins, we like having variety for when strawberries are out of season.
Frozen strawberries are great in smoothies like our Strawberry Banana Orange Smoothie, but this recipe features strawberry jam. Which is proof that there's more to a jar of jam than Frozen Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwiches (or Peanut Butter and Jelly Bread Pudding).

🍯 Why This Recipe Works
- They disappear quickly. These cookies never last long around here, so make sure to keep them stored somewhere when not being eaten, or you may find yours disappearing too.
- They're soft and chewy. While I can enjoy a thick cookie, thin ones deserve attention too. These cookies are chewy and firm around the edges but soft in the middle, making them a perfect bite of greatness.
- Simple ingredients. We use very basic pantry staple ingredients and strawberry jam instead of fresh strawberries, so you can make this recipe even when berries aren't in season!
🥘 Ingredients
Ingredient Notes:
Leavening agents- Use both baking powder as well as baking soda in these cookies. That will help them puff up and spread as they bake.
Butter- Use butter (salted or unsalted) for added fats and richness in every cookie.
White chocolate chips- I recommend a high-quality brand of white chocolate chips because they'll melt easier and be less likely to burn.
Strawberry jam- Use strawberry jam or strawberry preserves for a sweet berry taste. You can also use homemade sugar free strawberry jam! Just make sure to save some for Strawberry Cream Cheese Turnovers and Homemade Strawberry Pop Tarts.

🔪 Instructions for Strawberry White Chocolate Cookies
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Step 2: In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3: In another bowl, cream together the butter and sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
Step 4: Add in the egg and vanilla. Mix again to combine.
Step 5: Slowly add in the flour mixture, half at a time, while mixing at low speed. Continue until all flour has been added and no flour streaks remain.
Step 6: Stir in the white chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Step 7: Add your strawberry jam in dollops on top of the dough in scattered locations.
Step 8: Lightly swirl the dough around with a wooden spoon to make streaks throughout the dough. Do not overmix.
Step 9: Use a 1.5-2 Tablespoon-sized cookie scoop to scoop out the dough into balls. Place on the baking sheet evenly spaced with at least 2 inches of space between them.
Step 10: Bake in the oven for 8-10 minutes or until the top is no longer glossy and the edges look set. The cookies will appear puffy and underbaked.
Step 11: Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5-10 minutes. This is when the cookies will decompress and finish cooking so that they are stable enough to move to your rack.
Step 12: Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool.
🍴 Recipe Tips
- Baking Space- Ensure ample space between cookies on the baking sheet to accommodate spreading during baking. About 6 cookies per sheet is ideal for proper expansion.
- Parchment Paper- Using parchment paper on the baking sheet prevents sticking and facilitates easier cleanup.
- Chill the Dough- Refrigerating the dough before scooping and baking reduces spreading during cooking. Chilled dough yields cookies with a better shape.
- Determining Doneness- Look for golden edges and set centers, with the tops no longer appearing glossy. Avoid overbaking; cookies may seem underdone but will continue to cook slightly on the pan. Allow them to rest for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
💭 Recipe FAQs
These cookies are good for about 3-4 days when stored in an airtight container at room temperature. We can never seem to get them to last more than 2 days around here though (too many hungry hands reaching for another).
Yes, these cookies can be frozen before or after being baked. I recommend freezing the cookies after they have cooled by laying them on a baking sheet until solid and then transferring them to an airtight container.
Frozen cookie dough can be frozen in the same manner (freeze solid, then transfer), but it's helpful to have them already scooped and shaped into portioned dough balls first.
No, you will want to use softened butter, not melted. Melted butter will change the consistency of the dough and make it a lot wetter than it should be, which means the cookies will spread more than they should as well. To offset this, you will have to chill the dough for a long time before baking. Instead, just use room temp butter.
