- 2 tablespoons (25g) white sugar
- 1 tablespoon (15g) tightly packed light brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons (42g) melted and cooled salted butter
- 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup (100g) white sugar, plus a bit more for rolling
- 1/4 cup (55g) tightly packed light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon (5ml) vanilla essence
- 1 large egg
- 1 1/3 cups plus 1 tablespoon (200g) plain flour
- 1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped strawberries with white sugar, corn starch, and lemon juice. Stir gently until well coated. Set aside.
- In another bowl, whisk together ½ cup plain flour, 2 tablespoons white sugar, and 1 tablespoon light brown sugar. Add melted butter and mix until well combined. Incorporate softened unsalted butter until creamy. Gradually add in ½ cup white sugar and ¼ cup light brown sugar; mix until fluffy. Beat in vanilla essence and egg until fully combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1⅓ cups plain flour, bicarbonate of soda, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Take spoonfuls of cookie dough and flatten slightly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place a small amount of strawberry filling on top of each cookie. Roll additional dough around each cookie before rolling in extra sugar to coat.
- Bake in preheated oven for 12–15 minutes or until edges are lightly golden. Remove from oven and let them cool on wire racks.
- In a small bowl, mix icing sugar with vanilla essence and heavy cream. Adjust consistency with milk until it reaches desired thickness.
