Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 oz (170 g) cream cheese, cold
  • 3 tbsp (38 g) granulated white sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 12 oz (340 g) fresh strawberries, hulled and finely diced
  • 1/4 cup (50 g) granulated white sugar
  • 2 3/4 cups (344 g) all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup (200 g) granulated white sugar
  • 1 cup (227 g) unsalted butter, very softened
  • 1 egg, at room temperature
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 1/4 cup (50 g) granulated white sugar, for rolling dough in

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Beat the cold cream cheese with the granulated sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla until smooth. Set aside.
  3. Combine the diced strawberries and 1/4 cup of sugar, letting it sit for about 10 minutes until the strawberries release their juices.
  4. Cream together the softened butter and 1 cup of sugar until light and fluffy.
  5. Beat in the egg and stir in the remaining 2 teaspoons of vanilla.
  6. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl.
  7. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
  8. Take a small portion of the dough and flatten it in your hand, adding a spoonful of the cream cheese filling in the center, followed by a spoonful of the strawberry mixture. Fold the dough over and roll into a ball.
  9. Roll the dough ball in the remaining sugar and place it on the prepared baking sheet.
  10. Repeat the process until all dough is used.
  11. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.

Notes

Allow all ingredients to come to room temperature before mixing for the best texture.
