Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Cookies:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp strawberry extract (optional, for stronger strawberry flavor)
  • 2 tbsp strawberry Jell-O powder (for color & flavor)
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips (optional but delicious!)

For the Strawberry Crunch Topping:

  • 1/2 cup Golden Oreos, crushed (about 6 cookies)
  • 2 tbsp strawberry Jell-O powder
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted



Instructions

1. Preheat & Prepare Dough:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.

2. Make the Cookie Dough:

  • In a large bowl, beat butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until creamy (about 2 minutes).
  • Mix in egg, vanilla, and strawberry extract.
  • Add strawberry Jell-O powder and mix until fully incorporated.
  • Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined.
  • Fold in white chocolate chips (if using).

3. Form & Bake Cookies:

  • Scoop 1.5 tbsp-sized dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 9-11 minutes, until edges are set but centers are slightly soft.
  • Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

4. Make the Strawberry Crunch Topping:

  • In a small bowl, mix crushed Golden Oreos, Jell-O powder, and melted butter until crumbly.

5. Coat the Cookies:

  • While cookies are slightly warm, sprinkle or press the strawberry crunch topping onto each cookie.
  • Let cool completely before serving.

Notes

  • Want extra crunch? Double the topping and coat cookies completely!
  • No Golden Oreos? Use vanilla wafers or graham crackers instead.
  • Make ahead: Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 4 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
