I have started to redefine my blog by sharing about what I am exploring with my cooking or recipe. These Chocolate Chip Strawberry Cookies were an exploration into seeing what textural difference would occur from making them the regular way and making them gluten free. Unfortunately, I took the pictures only of the regular cookies because I had not yet translated my new blog idea into reality. I can share that the primary textural difference with a gluten free cookie is its consistency is a little more crumbly.
Chocolate Chip Strawberry Cookies from Feed Your Soul Too
In a future series, I am going to make gluten free cookies and vary a few common gluten free ingredients to see how it affects the end product. In this gluten version, I wanted to get a nice big cookie. Not big in size but big in density. I like a cookie that you can really bite into. I actual freeze my cookies to eat them, not to preserve them. Do any of you freeze your cookies too? The two tricks to making a dense cookie is to chill the dough and use an ice cream scooper to form a nice solid ball before baking. The cookie balls are formed first. Then, I put them in the fridge for a good 30 minutes.
A couple of other unique modifications or additions in this Chocolate Chip Strawberry Cookies recipe is I substituted plain Greek fat free yogurt, and I used Grandma’s famous strawberry jelly. It is famous in our family. To this day, grandma is still making this jelly and you can find jars of it in most of her children’s houses and in my kid’s places as well.

Excuse me? Where’s the louvre? You can clearly see my thumb in one of those pictures. And I think it was my recipe…
Allow this be a personal apology to my daughter for not giving her proper credit for the recipe idea and her participation in making these cookies. I love you Molly!
These cookies look so delicious and love the addition of chocolate chip+strawberry. I’m always stuck with so many strawberries after teh picking season and this would be a perfect recipe to use then.
Thx Molly and now you know what to do with all your strawberries.
That is a lovely cookie recipe with strawberry and chocolate chips. Kids would love the burst of flavors in the cookies.
Kids for sure and that is what I say when I make them so that I can enjoy them too.
I love this idea. Strawberries and chocolate are made for each other. I’ll take a dozen – you deliver, right?
I can if you like Kylee!
I’ve always loved chocolate covered strawberries so it’s really fantastic that you combine both flavors in one cookie. I can’t wait to try these out. Our grandsons love cookies and strawberries plus chocolate chips. This is a win-win-win.
Lucky grandsons if you make these for them.
What a creative combination! I love chocolate and strawberry cookies but have never seen the two together.
Thx so much Val.
What a great combination! I’ll bet these would disappear in a hurry. I like how soft / chewy they look in the pictures. I’m not a fan of crunchy chocolate chip cookies. Thanks for sharing!
I like to put my cookies in the freezer to make them extra crunchy. Funny! Do you say tomato or tomato?
These cookies look delicious and I like the new focus you have found for your blog.
Thank you for noticing the narrative change in the blog.
Never tried with this combination. Love to make soon with vegan options:) These looks perfect and delicious.
This would easily adapt to a vegan recipe.
Chocolate chip cookie is frequent scene in our home which strawberries this looks yummy. My son will love this
Try them and let me know what your son thinks of the recipe.
I love the flavors of chocolate and strawberry together! I could eat fresh berries dipped in chocolate all day long but sometimes I need cookies too! Now I can have both!
Wow. What an amazing realization.
How cute! I love the pairing of chocolate and strawberries. They sound perfect in these cookies!
It was a great way to combine the two.
Chocolate covered strawberries are my favorite dessert so I’m positive that I am going to like these cookies. They sound delicious!
Didn’t think of it that way. You are so right.
Making these for Mother’s Day!
You made my day. I hope you do.
Love the idea of adding strawberry to the chocolate chip cookie.. YUM!! Can’t wait to try.
I hope you do try this recipe.
A fun recipe with nice combination of flavors. Strawberry and chocolate are a classic combination I wish I could try one =)
Sorry but they are not any left!
I really like using Greek yogurt in baking. I recently made a quick bread with Greek yogurt in the dough.
I so agree – Greek yogurt is a great substitute for so many recipes.
Chocolate and strawberries is one of my favorite combos. I love the idea making it into cookies!
And from your site, I know you have good baking credentials.
Chocolate and strawberry is always a welcome combo!
Chocolate pairs so well with various fruits.
Strawberry and chocolate in a cookie? YES, please.
Thx Dan.
