Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

12 ounces strawberries, hulled and cut into 1/4-inch dice (2 cups)
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
3 ounces (6 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
2/3 cup heavy cream
Sanding sugar, for sprinkling

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Combine strawberries, lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar. Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and remaining 7 tablespoons granulated sugar in a large bowl. Cut in the butter with a pastry cutter, or rub in with your fingers, until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in cream until dough starts to come together, then stir in strawberry mixture.
Using a 1 1/2-inch ice cream scoop or a tablespoon, drop dough onto baking sheets lined with parchment, spacing evenly apart. Sprinkle with sanding sugar, and bake until golden brown, 24 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack, and let cool. Cookies are best served immediately, but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 day.

Tips:

For the best flavor, use fresh strawberries. If you don't have fresh strawberries on hand, you can use frozen strawberries that have been thawed and drained.
Be sure to wash the strawberries thoroughly before using them.
If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
The dough for these cookies is very soft and sticky. Be sure to chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out.
When rolling out the dough, use a lightly floured surface to prevent the dough from sticking.
Be sure to cut the cookies out with a sharp knife or cookie cutter. Dull knives will tear the dough.
Bake the cookies until they are golden brown around the edges. Overbaking will make the cookies dry.
Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them.
If you don't have time to make the frosting, you can simply sprinkle the cookies with powdered sugar.

Conclusion:

These strawberry shortcake cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are soft and chewy with a sweet and tangy frosting. These cookies are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
