Instructions
For the Cookies
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with
parchment paper.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the cake flour,
all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated
sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
4. Add Wet Ingredients: Add the egg and vanilla extract, beating until fully
incorporated.
5. Combine: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until
just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
6. Fold in Strawberries and Mochi Gummies: Gently fold in the diced fresh
strawberries, dried strawberries, and diced strawberry mochi gummies.
7. Portion Cookies: Using a cookie scoop or spoon, portion the dough into 12
equal-sized balls (about 3 tablespoons each). Place them on the prepared baking
sheet about 2 inches apart.
8. Bake: Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the
centers are still soft. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5
minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
For the Vanilla Icing
1. Mix Icing Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, 1
tablespoon of heavy cream or milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Add more
cream or milk, a little at a time, until the icing reaches your desired consistency.
2. Drizzle or Dip: Once the cookies are fully cooled, drizzle or dip the tops with the
vanilla icing.
3. Serve: Allow the icing to set before serving. Enjoy your strawberry shortcake
cookies!
