Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a blender, pulverize freeze-dried strawberries into powder.
Cream together salted butter, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg.
Gradually add all-purpose flour, baking soda, part of the strawberry powder, and kosher salt. Mix in the strawberry jam until well combined.
Roll dough into small balls and place on the prepared baking sheet, spaced apart.
Bake for about 8 minutes; tap the baking sheet to flatten cookies slightly before returning to bake for an additional 2–3 minutes until golden brown.
For icing, combine cream cheese, powdered sugar, hot milk, vanilla extract, and remaining strawberry powder until smooth. Adjust consistency as needed.
Once cooled, dip or drizzle icing over cookies.
