Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Cream butter and sugars: In another bowl, beat butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add wet ingredients: Mix in egg and vanilla extract until combined.
- Combine: Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture until a soft dough forms.
- Fold in strawberries: Gently fold in diced strawberries (and white chocolate chips if using).
- Shape cookies: Scoop dough onto baking sheet, spacing them apart.

Pat strawberries dry well to prevent excess moisture in the dough. For extra flavor, add a light vanilla glaze on top after baking. Store in the fridge due to fresh fruit.
