These delightful cookies bring together the familiar, comforting taste of sugar cookies with the fresh, juicy flavor of ripe strawberries, making them the perfect treat for any occasion.

Ingredients

    • 1 cup butter, salted, room temperature

    • 1 cup granulated sugar

    • 1 egg

    • 1/2 tsp pink food dye

    • 2 tsp baking powder

    • 1/4 tsp salt

    • 3 cups all purpose flour

Instructions

    • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

    • Start by creaming together your butter and sugar in your electric mixer with the paddle attachment.

    • Once butter and sugar is light and fluffy, add in eggs, strawberry emulsion, and pink food dye mix until combined.

    • Add in your baking powder, then add flour 1 cup at a time. Mix well each time you add flour.

    • Once dough is completely combined, lightly dust a clean work surface with flour and roll out your dough. I like to work with about 1/2 of the dough at a time. If you work with too much at one time it will be difficult to roll out.

    • Roll dough to about 1/4-1/2 inch thickness and cut with desired cookie cutters

    • Transfer to baking sheet, and bake for 6-7 minutes, depending on oven and preference. I never bake mine longer than 7 minutes. If the edges are starting to turn golden brown you’ve baked a little too long!

    • Cool completely before decorating.

    • Enjoy!
