Kitchen Equipment Needed

  • Electric or hand mixer
  • Baking sheets
  • Parchment paper or silicone baking mats
  • Microwave-safe bowl or double boiler
  • Cooling rack
  • Spoon or piping bag for drizzling

Ingredients Overview

  • Strawberry Flavoring: Provides the sweet and fruity base for these cookies.
  • Chocolate Chips: Used for the melted topping, creating the chocolate-covered effect.
  • Butter: Adds richness and moisture to the cookie dough.
  • Fresh Strawberries (Optional): Enhance the flavor and presentation.

Ingredients

For the Cookies:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon strawberry extract
  • 2-3 drops pink food coloring (optional)

For the Topping:

  • 1½ cups semisweet or dark chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil or butter (optional, for a smoother melt)
  • Fresh strawberry slices (optional, for garnish)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare and Preheat

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

2. Make the Cookie Dough

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  2. In a separate large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, and strawberry extract. If using food coloring, add it now for a soft pink hue.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until combined.

3. Shape and Bake

  1. Roll tablespoon-sized portions of dough into balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  2. Flatten slightly with the back of a spoon or your hand.
  3. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set.
  4. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack.

4. Add the Chocolate Topping

  1. Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second increments, stirring after each, or use a double boiler for a gentle melt. If desired, stir in coconut oil or butter for a glossy finish.
  2. Dip the top of each cooled cookie into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off. Place them back on the parchment paper.
  3. For extra flair, drizzle additional melted chocolate over the cookies or top with a fresh strawberry slice before the chocolate sets.

5. Set the Cookies

  1. Allow the chocolate to set at room temperature or place the cookies in the refrigerator for faster results.

Recipe Tips

  • Perfect Melting: Add coconut oil or butter to melted chocolate for a smooth and shiny finish.
  • Chill the Dough: If the dough is too soft, refrigerate for 20-30 minutes before baking.
  • Customize Colors: Use white chocolate and pink food coloring for a different look.

What to Serve With This Recipe

  • Pair these cookies with a glass of champagne or sparkling cider for an elegant dessert.
  • Serve alongside coffee or tea for a romantic afternoon treat.

Frequently Asked Questions
