These Strawberry Crunch Cookies are crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and packed with a burst of fruity flavor. Inspired by the classic strawberry crunch ice cream bars, they’re a delightful homemade sweet treat.

Ingredients

Scale

1 cup (230g) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
1/2 cup (100g) brown sugar
4 ounces (113g) cream cheese, softened
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups (280g) all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup (90g) white chocolate chips
1 cup fresh strawberries, diced
1 cup Golden Oreo cookies, crushed
2 tablespoons melted butter (for crunch topping)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Wash and dice fresh strawberries into small pieces.
In a large bowl, cream together butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Add brown sugar and cream cheese, mixing until smooth.
Mix in egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
Gently fold in diced strawberries and white chocolate chips. Be careful not to overmix.
Crush Golden Oreo cookies into crumbs and toss with melted butter to make the crunch topping.
Scoop 2 tablespoons of dough per cookie, roll into balls, and press the tops into the crunch topping.
Place cookies on prepared baking sheets and bake for 12-14 minutes, or until edges are golden and centers are set.
Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Pat the strawberries dry to avoid excess moisture in the dough. Chill the dough for 20-30 minutes if it feels too sticky. Don’t overbake; the cookies will firm up as they cool.
