Soft, chewy, buttery Strawberry Cream Cookies filled with white chocolate chips, freeze-dried strawberries and golden Oreos!
It’s no secret that I absolutely love cookies, chocolate chip cookies to be exact! BUT, these Strawberry Cream Cookies might just take the cake for the top spot. Y’all… these cookies were delicious, better than expected honestly. The moist, chewy center with the slightly crispy edges were AMAZING, okay!
CAN I USE FRESH STRAWBERRIES?
For this recipe I used freeze-dried strawberries because if you try to put fresh or frozen fruit in cookie dough they become all soggy and won’t bake properly due to the excess moisture.
CAN I FREEZE THE COOKIE DOUGH?
Yes! Follow the steps below to freeze your cookie dough.
- Make the cookie dough.
- Transfer the dough to the fridge to chill for about an hour.
- Scoop out balls of cookie dough and place onto a parchment-lined sheet tray.
- Flash freeze the cookie dough. Transfer the sheet tray to the freezer and let the cookie dough chill for about 30 minutes. This will allow the balls of cookie dough to become solid so when you put them on top of each other in a freezer bag they don’t stick to each other.
QUICK TIP
- Make sure you chill the dough! This is very important since we used room temperature butter. The dough will need time to chill, it also gives the flavors and textures time to come together.
- Please make sure you are measuring properly. I recommend spooning your ingredients in the measuring cups and leveling them off with the back of a butter knife, especially the flour.
- Let your cookies cool! I know it will be super hard but totally worth it in order to get that soft chewy center and crispy edge.
- These cookies taste best 1-2 days after being made. They do last up to a week in an airtight container and kept at room temperature. However, be sure to wait until cookies are completely cooled before adding them to the container.

Hello! Instead of crushing the freeze-dried strawberries, can they be blended into a powder?
Elizabeth Reese says
Hi Brittani- you can blend them into a powder just keep in mind that you won’t have those “chunks” of dried strawberries throughout. They powder will likely just blend with the cookie dough but the outcome should still be the same!
Brittani says
OMG! these cookies are absolutely amazing! If I use chopped golden oreos, how much should I use?
Elizabeth Reese says
I’m glad you love them, thank you! The recipe calls for about 1/3 Cup of crushed Golden Oreos. If you try and keep them bigger in size then you would have large cookie chunks throughout the cookie.
