Ingredients
  

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

3/4 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup freeze-dried strawberries, finely crushed

1 cup milk chocolate kisses (or your choice of chocolate)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

    Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

      Add Wet Ingredients: Add in the egg and vanilla extract, beating until well combined.

        Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and crushed freeze-dried strawberries.

          Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix.

            Form Cookies: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, scoop out dough and roll into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.

              Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let them cool for about 5 minutes.

                Add Kisses: While the cookies are still warm, gently press a chocolate kiss into the center of each cookie. Allow the kisses to soften slightly before transferring the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.

                  Store: Once cooled, store your Strawberry Kiss Cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
