Strawberry Cream Puff Cookies
Delightful treats filled with luscious strawberry cream, Strawberry Cream Puff Cookies offer a soft, delicate exterior, a hint of sweetness, and a burst of juicy strawberries in every bite.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, diced
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter with 1/2 cup of water over medium heat and add sugar until it boils. Remove from heat and mix in flour until a dough forms.
- Let the mixture cool, then add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each.
- Scoop tablespoon-sized portions onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for about 20 minutes or until puffed and golden.
- Whip heavy cream until soft peaks form, mix in powdered sugar, and fold in diced strawberries.
- Once cookies are cool, slice the tops off, fill with the strawberry cream mixture, and replace the tops.
- Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before serving.
Notes
Ensure butter is room temperature for better mixing. Use fresh strawberries for the filling. Chilling enhances texture and flavor.
