Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ¾ cups (345g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (227g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 ½ cups (300g) granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1 ½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup (60ml) whole milk
  • 1 cup (150g) fresh strawberries, finely chopped
  • ½ cup (120g) cream cheese, softened
  • ¼ cup (30g) powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 8 oz (225g) semi-sweet chocolate chips or chunks
  • 1 tablespoon (15g) coconut oil or unsalted butter

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  2. Using a mixer, beat softened butter and granulated sugar on medium speed for 3-4 minutes until fluffy and pale.
  3. Beat in egg, vanilla extract, and whole milk until combined.
  4. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Cover dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  6. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
  7. Scoop dough using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, roll into balls, place 2 inches apart on baking sheets, and flatten to about ½ inch thickness.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are lightly golden but centers remain soft.
  9. Cool cookies on baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
  10. Finely chop strawberries. In a small bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and lemon juice until smooth. Fold in chopped strawberries gently.
  11. Spread about 1 tablespoon of strawberry filling on the bottom side of one cookie, then top with another cookie to form a sandwich. Repeat.
  12. Melt chocolate chips with coconut oil or butter in a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler, stirring until smooth.
  13. Dip each cookie sandwich halfway into melted chocolate, place on parchment paper to set, and chill briefly if needed.

Notes

Chill dough before baking to prevent spreading and ensure tender cookies. Use room temperature cookies for dipping chocolate to avoid cracking. If chocolate seizes, add more coconut oil or butter and stir gently. Finely chop strawberries to avoid soggy filling. Overbaking dries cookies; bake until edges are lightly golden and centers soft.
