Make Cookies With Strawberries

June 15, 2015   8 Comments

Snack Girl knows you are all eating strawberries. The last batch I bought was incredible!

When I lived in San Francisco (and was significantly more wealthy than I am now), I bought organic strawberries for my two year old for an astronomical price. I made the mistake of letting him near the basket and before I knew it, they were gone and there was a little boy smeared with expensive strawberry juice.

I learned my lesson and I now hide the strawberries from my children ☺

These cookies are pretty much divine. I love the idea of strawberries in cookies because I love strawberries in pretty much everything. These will remind you of those jam stuffed cookies that you eat at the holidays.

I used Greek yogurt instead of butter and it works really well. The sourness of the yogurt is offset by the sweetness of the berries.

Give these a try with your next quart of strawberries (if you can keep someone from eating them all).

Are you eating strawberries now?
