Strawberry Shortcake Cookies

Do you ever just think to yourself, “Oh I’ll just bake a small batch to test it out” and then instantly regret it? Well that was me with these cookies.

These Strawberry Shortcake Cookies are inspired by the classic biscuit strawberry shortcake, with a biscuit-like cookie filled with chunks of fresh strawberries. Plus I have to say, they’re pretty adorable.

These easy, vegan, gluten free, healthy cookies will be gone in no time. I’d recommend doubling or tripling the recipe — I know I will next time!
