These delicious strawberry and cream cookies can be made at any time of the year because the recipe uses freeze-dried strawberries instead of fresh strawberries. First flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt are whisked together. Then melted butter, sugar, eggs and vanilla are mixed together. Once cooled, the dry ingredients are added with freeze-dried strawberries and white chocolate chips. The cookie batter is refrigerated for an hour, then shaped into balls and baked until golden.
