Strawberry cookies recipe with step by step photos. Sharing a very easy, fuss free strawberry cookies recipe, egg less, no artificial colors, these cookies are so tasty with bursting strawberry flavor along with the hint of vanilla.
I wanted to share strawberry cookies recipe last year itself but somehow missed it, so with the appearance of strawberries in market this year, I made a very delicious and flavorful batch of fresh strawberry cookies at home and also made a post :).
I would say this is the easiest and best recipe you would bake with strawberries :), no fancy ingredients, no complicated steps, absolutely no frills recipe, you need just 10 minutes hands on time to make this easy strawberry cookies recipe. I have added 1 tablespoon custard powder to the cookie dough mixture and absolutely loved the texture of finished cookies, the cookies were so light and crispy, not chewy at all.
To make strawberry cookies recipe, you can use whole wheat flour or all purpose flour or a combination of both. Here I have made with all purpose flour alone. I recommend you add custard powder, if you do not have it handy you can add 1 tablespoon corn flour. One important point is to refrigerate the dough for 30-60 minutes. The strawberry cookies dough is very sticky, so refrigerating makes the dough easy to handle. You can just refrigerate the dough or shape the dough like a log and refrigerate it too. The cookies spread while baking, so make sure to leave enough space while arranging the cookies. Also make sure you remove the cookies from the oven after 12 minutes, the cookies turn very crispy and light as they cool down.
Here is how to make easy and tasty strawberry cookies recipe, do try out during this strawberry season!

Strawberry cookies recipe with step by step photos.
1. Take 3-4 big strawberries, wash and hull. Mash them very well with your hands. Do not puree or grind. Just mashing with hands will do.
2. Take sugar and softened butter in a mixing bowl. Beat well till the mixture turns light and creamy.
3. Add mashed strawberries, vanilla extract and mix well.
4. Add all purpose flour, custard powder, baking powder and mix well.
5. Once everything is mixed well, knead the dough well for 3-4 minutes. The dough will be very soft and sticky. Now refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes.
6. Preheat oven at 180C. Take the dough out and knead lightly.
7. Divide the dough into 15 equal sizes. I used a tablespoon to scoop out the dough ad got exactly 15 cookies. Roll each portion smoothly and flatten slightly.
8. Arrange in a cookie tray, leave enough space between each cookie.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes. My cookies were done in 12 minutes. Remove from oven and allow the cookies to cool thoroughly. Store strawberry cookies in airtight container.
