Instructions
00:00 Introduction
00:18 Preheat oven to 350F (175C).
00:23 Place freeze-dried strawberries in a food processor and pulse repeatedly until they’re ground to a fine dust. Measure out 1 Tablespoon of fine powder and place in a small dish (for rolling the cookies).
01:46 Combine butter and granulated sugar in large bowl and use an electric mixer to beat until well-creamed (about 2 minutes on md-high speed).
02:14 Add strawberry powder (minus the Tablespoon which you will reserve for later) and stir on low-speed until combined.
02:35 If desired, add pink food coloring until desired color is achieved.
03:28 Stir in egg until combined.
03:36 In a separate dish, whisk together flour, salt, and baking soda. With mixer on low-speed, gradually add to the strawberry mixture in 3 parts, stirring until completely combined.
04:43 Take your reserved strawberry powder from earlier and add ¼ cup (50 g) of granulated sugar. Whisk until well-combined.
05:01 Scoop dough by level 1 ½ Tablespoon and roll between your palms to make a smooth ball. Roll through the strawberrry/sugar mixture until completely coated and place on a parchment lined baking sheet, spacing at least 2” apart.
05:25 Bake in center rack of 350F (175C) oven for 11 minutes. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for several minutes before using a spatula to carefully transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely before enjoying.
Notes
Freeze-dried strawberries
These are usually sold in the grocery store in the dried fruit and nut section. I place these in a food processor and pulverize until they’re a fine dust.
Storing
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

I use freeze dried strawberries all the time for my strawberry recipes! I love the taste because I find it to be a more intense taste. Love the recipe ❤️
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! The freeze dried strawberries definitely do tend to have more flavor if you ask me. :)
Where does one find these strawberry’s at?
@@louisaharris3345 I can usually find a small bag at Dollar Tree.
Es, those are good. Aldi has at good price!
Thank you. I will look for them.
I ran out and got the strawberries as soon as this video was posted. Made the cookies last night.
They are easy and delicious. I love how the flavor turned out. I experimented and topped one batch of the cookies with white chocolate chips as soon as i took them out of the oven. I didn't roll that batch in the sugar before i put them in. That was good, too.
I skipped the food coloring bc I didn't feel like buying it, and my cookies were pretty pink. Like a baby pink/dusty rose. So they were still cute without the food coloring.
This is a new favorite 😊
I’m so glad you enjoyed them so much! 😊😊
Great for the kids
Looks delicious! Will have to try theses. Always love Lukes's reactions, they are the best.
🤣 He is a goof!
I just restocked a large bag of freeze dried strawberries and this recipe is posted. Thank you! I love strawberry anything, I will be making these tonight! 😊
I hope you love them! :)
Love the bloopers
Yum!! What a pretty cookie!
Thank you! :)
This is my favorite fruit! Thank you so much for a wonderful recipe. I absolutely love the color as well.
You're welcome! I hope you love the cookies! :)
I’ll be trying these soon. Thanks!
I hope you love them! :)
Great looking recipe, Sam! Can't wait to try these!🍓😋
I hope you love them! 😊
They look so pretty ❤
Looks good yummy
Looks great! 😊
Thank you! :)
Your strawberry cookies look so good
Thank you so much! :)
wow Amazing Strawberry cookies
I am watching step by step
Thanks for sharing
Can't wait to make these love strawberrys
I think you are going to love these! :)
I made caramel apple cookies. I sort of followed the same technique with freeze dried apples. The only difference I did was add caramel bits like chocolate chips. The caramel bits are like the size of marbles. You can taste the chewy caramel on the inside. It's really tasty. It can work very well for autumn if you ask me. You ought to try that.
That sounds really good! I will definitely have to try it. :)
I finally got around to making these! They are as good as I thought they would be. Naturally, the strawberry taste does fade a little after baking, but it's still quite strong. I did end up using all the strawberries in the 2.0 oz bag I bought as it came out to around the amount we need anyway.
The great thing is, now that we have the recipe for this, people can use other freeze-dried fruit flavors as well.
I’m so glad you enjoyed the cookies so much! 😊😊
This is such a great idea! I love it! I can't wait to use some strawberries to make these!
You're going to love them! :)
They look delicious! and Luke is so sweet 🍓
Thank you 😋

@@SugarSpunRun Thank you Sam for sharing all of your wonderful recipes✨
I have to try these. 😋
You won't regret it! :)
So sweet and beautiful your recipe
Thanks a lot 😊
I made these today, they are fantastic. I had the berries on had and love having a new recipe to use them up. I also live at 5000' elevation so I added 1 1/2 tablespoons of water.
I'm so glad you enjoyed them so much! :)
Strawberry flavored cookies yummy!
They are so good! :)
A good video of strawberry cookies it's delicious 😊.
Thank you!! :)
😂 You gotta love Luke's responses!! Great 2 see him in vids!!😂😂
I will be trying this recipe for my husband..he loves strawberries. I know it's going to be be good!!!!
THANK YOU for your recipes Sam!!!
🤣 Kids say whatever they want! You're welcome! I hope you love the cookies! :)
I loveee strawberry desserts! I hate the taste of artificial strawberry flavors, so these should be a breath of fresh air!
I hope you love them! :)
This recipe looks really good, I really like this.❤❤❤
Thank you! :)
@@SugarSpunRun no problem
Ohhhh, never had a strawberry cookie, but those look so good! I love using the freeze dried strawberries and raspberries. 😂 at Luke. Always good for a laugh🙃
🤣 I hope you love these! :)
Moral of the video , kids don’t lie , even if they risk mommy taking away the cookie for giving their honest opinion on camera , you go Luke. ❤😂
You're so sweet! I realized that you used the smaller sticks. I love your recipes and GIRLLL! Let me tell you, you got me turned on to organic strawberry powder! I bought some and now I find myself sprinking it on watemelon LOL and fruit, and rolling cookie dough balls in a blend of powdered sugar and strawberry powder! :)
🤣 I'm so glad you enjoy all of the recipes! :)
Oh yum! Several "additions" came to mind...mini chocolate chips, cream cheese frosting, vanilla ice cream sandwich.....🥰
These all sound AMAZING!!
YES. I keep freeze dried strawberry powder in the pantry. Strawberry milk, smoothies, strawberry/banana bread, strawberry lemonade and so much more. Your strawberry cookie recipe is a WINNER and being printed at this very moment. Thanks for sharing.
I hope you love it! :)
How much powder do you measure up to be the equivalent of 2.5 cups of sliced freeze dried strawberries?
@hitchyourwagon4720 yes, that info would help! I have a package of pulverized strawberries. What amount to use! It's a powder. Probably 1/2 cup? Annoying
yummy when i try this im going to add white chocolate chips.
Great idea!
tip for pulverising stuff like freeze-dried fruit - line the top of the container with parchment and then screw the lid on. limits the messy cleanup as well;) oh, and the recipe looks amazing!
Great tip! Thank you! :)
These look like they’d be delicious! I might try adding just a pinch of black pepper (strawberries and pepper are an underrated combo, try it!).
I hope you love them! I've never tried strawberries and pepper, but it certainly sounds interesting. I will have to give it a try. :)
These would be so good with white chocolate chips.
You could certainly add some in. 😊
I’m going to make these for my granddaughters watermelon theme birthday party! ❤
I hope you love them! :) I have a watermelon sugar cookie recipe that would be PERFECT for a watermelon themed party. :) th-cam.com/video/ld9TC-dxqXI/w-d-xo.html
I’m planning on making those too! Thank you! ❤
I like strawberry cookies I never tried it
Enjoy! :)
I love Sam!😍
Sounds yummy. But my niece is defly allergic to red food coloring. But what I've found for a good substitute and good for you is beet juice extract powder. And you can't even taste it when you bake with it either. Will give this a whirl but am going to add some chocolate chips to mine. Thanks again, your the best!
Great tip! Thank you so much for sharing, I'll be trying that next time :)
I made these and they're amazingly good. Thank you so very much for sharing this recipe with us all. Just got your email for the strawberry frosting and that the freezer dried strawberries can be used... super excited to make it. Do you have any other recipes using the freeze dried strawberries or other fruits like muffins or cakes? Again thank you for sharing, I have really changed my home with your recipes.. especially the dinners and wanted you to know. Have a blessed and wonderful day.
I'm so glad you've enjoyed everything so much! I love reading comments like this one. It makes it so happy. :)
the way Luke says Brown Sugar was the cutest thing. 06:16
☺️
Yummy😋😋😋
the cookie with no food colouring looked good aswell
Thank you! :)
Hi there Sam! I love strawberries❤️❤️ 🍓 I hope you’re having a wonderful day!
Thank you so much! I'm doing very well. Thank you for asking! I wish the same for you. :)
@@SugarSpunRun I am having a good day today I just woke up from my beauty sleep I feel so good 😊
That’s excellent!!😊😊
I can't wait to make these! I'm assuming it's ok to use freeze dried raspberries instead???
That should work. :) I hope you love them! :)
I have to ask, are you a Home Economics graduate,(Family and Consumer Sciences)? You are a pro preparing and demonstrating your recipes! 👍❤️
Thank you so much! I am not, I am self taught/learned from my mother.
I use a pkg. of strawberry Kool- Aid works in cakes, cookies. Just 1 pkg. cheap. But taste is good
Love your recipes and concise presentation. And really love that you mute the mixer, wish everyone did.
Thank you so much! :)
Unbelievably Sam look Delicious thank you so much I can't wait to make them Can I make the strawberry muffin as well sent love to Luke
Aww… Luke is a foodie:)
🤣 ..... yeah.... he'll eat anything with sugar! 🤣
I made these, and they are GREAT! Is there any reason this recipe wouldn't work with other freeze-dried fruits, like bananas or apples?
I'm so glad you enjoyed them so much! I haven't tired them with banana or apple so I can't say for sure how it would go. I would think it could work. If you do try it I would love to know how it goes. :)
How about adding strawberry extract?
Here in Canada - where do you get the freeze-dried strawberries?
🍓🍓🍓
How can we make that cookie but thicker?
These look amazing! I do want to try making these cookies but with 2 changes. I want a chewy cookie and I heard use melted butter instead of softened butter will provide that result. Also I want to add white baking morsels. Do you think the recipe will still turn out ok? Should I decrease the amount of sugar in the dough if I add the baking morsels so they aren’t cloyingly sweet?
The melted butter can contribute to a chewier cookie. These are a chewy cookie already. I didn't like the results when I tested melted butter. It could work, but the cookies will need to chill longer. You can add some white chocolate into the batter without alterations. :)
@@SugarSpunRun Thanks for responding! I used softened butter and baking morsels. These turned out great!
This looks awesome!
Wonder if maybe you can throw us an accompanying recipe for blue cookies... then white cookies? That would make for a cool patriotic trio!
While I don't have a blue cookie, I do have some pretty cool patriotic cookies. sugarspunrun.com/star-spangled-cookies/
@SugarSpunRun oh boy I cannot wait to try these! 😍
how can i make it with fresh strawberries?
When you popped open that processor, I could smell the strawberries from here! I'll bet that's a deliciously pungent odor!
It smells soooo good! :)
can u use any kind of stawberries
You only want to use freeze dried strawberries here. Regular fresh strawberries will introduce more moisture and have devastating effects on the cookies.
🪄🫖 Wow, they look great. Thanks 🍓🍪🎡🍯💚
Thank you! 😊
Hi, I don't have freeze dried strawberries, but I do have regular strawberries. If frozen ones are better, could you freeze the regular strawberries?
I'm not sure how using fresh or frozen strawberries would work. That is going to add a lot more moisture into the batter and would be bad news for the cookies. :(
We eat with our eyes. That’s why he said the redder ones were strawberry. 😅
That makes a lot of sense! :)
I have the freeze-dried strawberry in powder form already and was wondering what's the weight in grams of the powder?
I provide all of the weight measurements in the recipe in the description. :)
Could you use dehydrated strawberries instead of freeze dryied?
I'm not sure how they would turn out.
Can i use normal strawberries?
Unfortunately they wouldn't work well here.
Your son so cute 🥰
Thank you!
Where can you get freeze dried strawberries?
I typically find them in my grocery store near the nuts. :)
Can u add strawberry essence to give it a more strawberry taste
I haven't tried it, but I think it could work. Enjoy! :)
How much strawberry powder does 2 1/2 c freeze dried strawberries make?
I haven't measured out the powder, but it is 1.5oz if that helps.
I love the stand mixer part, but I feel like it's being rushed through now! 😔😔
Yes, it always makes me chuckle.😊
I hope you see this. I'm trying to play catch-up with my videos!!! Your stand mixer is very lonely!!!! I have one, too, and they are so heavy to move. I have mine in a spot next to an outlet so I don't have to move it. I LOVE MINE!!! Your son is so cute!!!
They are heavy, but can be sooooo uselful! Thank you! :)
Whenever I make strawberry cookies I always end up using a box of the cheapie cake mix 😂
Now you don't have to! :)
Wow! New sub here! I recently made Lemon Sugar Cookies on my page too and *your dish looks amazing!* Hope to stay connected! 😁
You are not saying the mesures how do we know how much we put
All measurements are discussed in the video and written out in the description 🙂
Can we dried strawbery by airfryer?
I am not sure, honestly, I buy mine from the grocery store. I will see if I can find them on Amazon and add a link to the description.
Here is a link for amazon, but note that I can find them cheaper at the grocery store: amzn.to/3N35urd
Just tried these cookies. So weird. Not bad wierd, just wierd. XD Like, I like strawberry flavor, but I've never had it in a cookie. Cakes, sure. Jams? Candies? Jello? Yep. Cookies? Nope. Warm? Nope. I took one bite of a warm cookie and put it down until it cooled the rest of the way. Better when room temp, but still a bit odd. Then I grabbed a bag of bittersweet chocolate chips (Ghiardelli brand) and took a bite of cookie with a chip. Pretty good, though I wish I had semi-sweet instead. I'm down to the last tray of cookies (yes they're being baked right now) so I shoved 3 chips in each cookie for 9 cookies... we'll see how they come out once baked and cooled! And if I like, make a chocolate drizzle out of more of the chips... or go buy a bag of semi-sweet to do so. We'll see! :D
Also I did chill my dough, not because it was too sticky, but because I made the dough and then I had to go do something else for a couple hours and didn't think it'd be a good idea to leave my dough out. And I had to use a 2 teaspoon cookie scoop and scoop 2 balls per cookie because the 1 1/2 tablespoon scoop I have is apparently a dud and didn't like the still somewhat sticky/stiff dough and majorly skipped gears so the scraper arm didn't move properly. And even when adjusted, it kept doing it. Even if I dipped the scoop in water and/or flour before each scoop. *sigh* My small scoop however worked like a dream as usual. lol
And I have so much strawberry sugar left over but I have no idea what I would do with it if I wanted to save it.. which is probably a bad idea since raw cookie dough was rolling around in it anyway. Heh
well, the great TH-cam algorithms must’ve figured out that I paid heavily for a couple packages of freeze dried strawberries. Recently, got them to amp up the flavor in a strawberry buckle I was doing. Strawberries, lose so much of their aromatics in cooking, they really do need a little help. where is a good source for affordable freeze dried strawberries, or do you just have to be willing to shell out good money for decent ones. The other question I have is about your choice of using baking soda? I was curious, is there enough acidity, well, there must be because the cookies obviously turned out great, from the strawberry pie with her to activate the baking soda. Did you first experiment with baking powder? If you didn’t, what would the result be of subbing baking powder for baking soda. What about including larger chunks of the freeze dried strawberries in the cookies. AnyWho, enjoy the Contant, keep up the great work! Look forward to more.
I buy the generic freeze dried strawberries from walmart. They are pretty inexpensive and have a great flavor. I did not care for the results with baking powder. I think leaving larger chunks of strawberry would be perfectly fine. Of course you can adjust that to taste. :)
These cookies are GREAT! I've made them several times, and everyone loves them. The strawberry flavor is intense. I've also made them substituting free-dried apples and bananas, and both of those turned out great too. If you use apples, be sure to add cinnamon for some extra flavor.
That's so great to hear! I'm so glad you've enjoyed the cookies so much! It's great to hear the apples and bananas worked well too. :)
I’ve done several experiments and natural strawberry flavor can’t hold up being baked, just like natural watermelon flavor can’t hold up. They are such delicate, non-oil based flavors that heat destroys them (unlike citrus flavors from orange, lemon and lime zest). I think you might get better results using a light strawberry glaze applied to the cookies after they come out of the oven. In any case, it would be cool if you would avoid using freeze dried ingredients in your future videos unless you’re doing something revolutionary because most people (probably 90% of your viewers) can’t afford $3,000.00 for a Harvest Right freeze dryer. Great video! I watched until the end.
I'm so glad you enjoyed! An ounce of freeze dried strawberries is $3.72 at my local grocery store so no need for a freeze dryer. The strawberry flavor comes through quite nicely here and these have a great bright flavor that's distinctly strawberry, I hope you'll give them a try!
@@SugarSpunRun I trust you! I’m going to have to find freeze dried strawberries. I based my comment off of your son’s brown sugar comment and his opinion that the same red food coloring cookie tasted like strawberry. I’ll give this recipe an honest review ASAP. Did you find the freeze dried strawberries in the bulk food bins or were they in plastic packages on the baking aisle with chocolate chips, nuts, etc.?
🤨🤔
I typically find them near the nuts or raisins.
Where does a person get freeze dried strawberries
I typically find them in my local grocery store near the nuts
@@SugarSpunRun well, that makes sense, “senior moment” thank you very much
I tried it but it turned a bit cakey but still super delicious ❤ but can anyone tell me whyy
I'm so sorry to hear this! Did you make any substitutions? I find that incorporating more liquid tends to make them cakey. :(
❤💕🦄👍
If you want a strong strawberry flavored buttercream use freeze dried strawberries. There's a strawberry cake I make that uses a reduced amount of strawberry puree for the batter then the freeze dried strawberries for the frosting. I've used freeze dried berries in a SMBC, marshmallow buttercream and cream cheese frosting so far. I'm not joking when I say it taste like you're eating a strawberry milkshake. As for the cake and cream cheese frosting I mentioned above that's not my recipe. The credit goes to Sally's Baking Addiction. And yes, she got me addicted to that cake and the use of freeze dried berries in my frosting, lol...
Oh yes! I have a strawberry frosting made with freeze dried strawberries too, the flavor is incredible. Thank you for sharing, Sally definitely has some wonderful recipes, too! 🥰
I made a muffin that used spinach puree in a similar way. Swapped it for fresh strawberries one time and loved it.
My great grandmother made zucchini cake, and I found I have a fondness for veggie cakes. I used to dislike fruit until I started baking with it more. I want to invest in a freeze dryer, because I want to try all sorts of fruits this way... the powders are very pretty!
Strawberries are red so when I make these I’ll be using red food coloring
I never get cookies rolled in sugarto look like I did anything …it just melts into the cookies.
A coarse sugar is probably a better bet then. It will melt a little bit but you should definitely still see it. :)
Limp Whisket. 😂
Send me recipe
Check description. :)
No such thing ! 😂😂😂😂. I Love anything real strawberry flavor
It’s so good! 😊😊
so uh where does the egg go?😅
Beware of the strawberry powder,it can activate breathing distress to asthmatics. The first time I used this powder in a recipe my asthmatic grandson was assisting me,yikes,he quickly needed a resp treatment.
Oh no! I'm glad he was ok!
You seem so sweet love your videos xoxo
Thank you so much!! 😊
Of course Luke's cookie doesn't taste like strawberry, you mistakenly gave him a minced beef pattie!! How sneaky you are!!! Nice recipe though!
🤣 He's a goof!
@@SugarSpunRun and am sure you totally enjoy his goofiness!
Unnatural food coloring is very bad for you. Try instead adding freeze-dried dragon fruit (powdered) to get that awesome pink color. It pairs amazing with strawberries (dragon fruit has a very light flavor) without taking away the strawberry flavor. God bless. 💖☺️🙏🏻✝️🇺🇸
I'd opt out of the food dye 😂 we eat with our eyes and the food dye makes those cookies look like lean beef slider patties ready for the grill.
The paler natural hue of the strawberry is much more palatable.
