Equipment

1 Baking Sheet
1 Bowl
1 Whisk
1 Spatula

Ingredients

9 tablespoon Butter
½ Tsp Baking Soda
1 1;2 Cup Freeze Dried Strawberries In chunks and squished up into powder
1 Egg
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
¼ Cup White Sugar
¾ Cup Light Brown Sugar
1 ½ Cup Flour I use Gluten Free King Arthur Measure for Measure with xanthan gum
1 tablespoon Milk Optional if you feel the batter is too dry

Instructions

Mix together your dry ingredients: in a large bowl add the flour, and baking soda and set aside.
Brown the butter: Browned butter enhancing the flavor of any cookie dough and it is super simple to make. If you want the butter to melt faster, use room temperature butter but honestly, cold butter is fine. Place the butter into a pan (or small saucepan) and put it on medium heat. The butter will begin to break down and you will see little brown bits form on the bottom, Swirl it around and remove it from the heat. Pour the butter into the small bowl (or) medium sized bowl.
Fold the wet ingredients: into the dry ingredients ⅓ at a time. At the ⅔ point, add the chocolate and strawberries to the bowl and make sure everything is incorporated. One of the key things to this batter is to make sure to not overwork it. Once you have folded it a few times, add the chocolate chunks and strawberries. Do make sure though to scrap down the sides of the bowl to make sure you get everything in the mixing bowl incorporated. Add the milk and fold everything together once more.
Roll the dough: into balls and place onto a baking sheet that is lined with parchment paper or a baking mat. The dough may feel greasy, but that is entirely normal. You can use a cookie scoop for this or an ice cream scoop but I just do it by hand.
Set the oven to 350°: The bake time on the cookies is 12 minutes but I like to bake them for 6 minutes, then turn the cookie sheets. Then bake for another 6 minutes. The cookies will be golden brown when done.
Remove the trays from the oven: and let them sit for a few minutes on the sheets. If you want crispy edges but a gooey center, then you can eat them right away, otherwise, let them sit for a little bit. You can leave them on the cookie sheet or place them on a wire rack or cooling wrack to cool completely.
