Ingredients

Scale

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp baking powder
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup fresh strawberries, diced

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a muffin tin.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together baking powder and flour, then gradually add to the wet mixture until just combined—avoid overmixing.
Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of dough into the greased muffin tin, pressing down gently in the center to shape them into cups.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden around the edges. Allow cooling slightly before removing from the tin.
Once cooled, fill each cookie cup with diced strawberries and optional whipped cream.
