Ingredients

Scale

  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup diced fresh strawberries
  • For the icing: granulated sugar, fresh strawberry syrup, lemon juice, powdered sugar, and vanilla

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the soft butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add cornstarch, vanilla extract, kosher salt, and flour; mix until just combined. Gently fold in the diced strawberries.
  4. Use a cookie scoop to portion out small balls of dough and roll them in sugar before placing them on the prepared baking sheet.
