Here’s how to make them.

Ingredients

For the Strawberry Shortcake Cookies:

• 2 1/2 cups all-purpose baking mix
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup half and half
• 4 tablespoons salted butter, melted
• 1 cup chopped strawberries
• 1 cup white chocolate chips
• Coarse raw cane sugar (optional, for sprinkling)

For the Glaze:

• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1-2 tablespoons half and half

Directions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 425℉ (220°C). Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper to prevent the cookies from sticking and set them aside.

Step 2: Prepare the Dough

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose baking mix and granulated sugar. Once combined, stir in the half and half and melted butter until the mixture forms a soft dough.

Step 3: Add Strawberries and White Chocolate Chips

Gently fold in the chopped strawberries and white chocolate chips, making sure they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough. Be careful not to overmix, as the strawberries may release some of their juice.

Step 4: Scoop the Dough

Using a medium cookie scoop or about 1 1/2 tablespoons of dough, scoop portions onto the prepared cookie sheets. You should be able to fit 12 cookies per sheet. For an extra touch of sweetness and texture, sprinkle the tops of the dough balls with coarse raw cane sugar, if desired.

Step 5: Bake the Cookies

Place the cookie sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are set and the tops are lightly golden brown.

Step 6: Cool the Cookies

Once the cookies are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes. Afterward, transfer the cookies to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Step 7: Prepare the Glaze

While the cookies cool, make the glaze. In a small bowl, mix together the powdered sugar and half and half, starting with 1 tablespoon of half and half and adding more as needed to reach your desired consistency. The glaze should be smooth and easy to drizzle.

Step 8: Drizzle and Serve

Once the cookies have cooled, drizzle the glaze over them using a fork or a small spoon. Allow the glaze to set before serving. Enjoy these strawberry shortcake cookies as a delightful treat with a cup of tea, coffee, or on their own!

Tips for Success

• Fresh Strawberries: Be sure to use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor. Frozen strawberries can add too much moisture to the dough.
• Avoid Overmixing: When adding the strawberries and white chocolate chips, mix gently to avoid breaking up the strawberries or making the dough too wet.
• Storage: These cookies are best enjoyed the day they are baked, but you can store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
