Equipment

  • Digital kitchen scale
  • Stand mixer or hand mixer and a large mixing bowl
  • Parchment paper

Ingredients

  • 200 g all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 20 g freeze-dried strawberry powder bought or made by pulsing freeze-dried strawberries in a blender or a food processor
  • 120 g unsalted butter at room temperature
  • 180 g white granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg at room temperature
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 drops red food coloring optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180C (355F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, salt, and freeze-dried strawberry powder. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or you can use a bowl and a hand mixer), beat the butter and sugar on medium-high for 2-3 minutes or until it resembles a thick, homogenous paste.
  • Then, add the egg and food coloring and beat until emulsified.
  • Add the dry ingredients and beat on the lowest speed just until no dry ingredients are left.
  • Form 16 even balls (35g each) and place them on the prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake one batch at a time for 10-11 minutes or until finished spreading and puffing up. Remove from the oven and drop the tray 2-3 times on a flat surface to deflate the cookies. Transfer with an offset spatula onto a cooling rack.
  • Repeat the process with the second batch.

Notes

Store the cookies in an airtight container lined with a paper towel, or covered with plastic wrap on a plate at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
Freeze the cookies for up to 2 months.
