Ingredients
  

Cookies Base
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened Room temperature helps with creaming.
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt Reduce to 1/4 teaspoon if using salted butter.
Mix-ins
  • 1/2 cup strawberry jam Seedless if you prefer a smoother texture.
  • 1 cup crushed strawberry-flavored cereal e.g., Special K Strawberry; pulse in a bag or food processor.
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low until just combined.
  6. Fold in the strawberry jam, crushed cereal, and white chocolate chips.
  7. If the dough seems too soft, chill in the refrigerator for 15 to 20 minutes.
Baking
  1. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  2. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until edges are lightly golden.
  3. Let cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

Serve warm with milk or vanilla ice cream. Store in an airtight container for 3 to 5 days. For longer storage, freeze in a single layer on a baking sheet and transfer to a bag for up to 3 months.
