Strawberry Almond Sprinkle Cookies
A mouthful of a name and a cookie. Each hot pink cookie is packed full of the most fun rainbow-colored sprinkles and decadent white chocolate chips. A soft and chewy cookie center that will practically melt in your mouth and have you quickly reach for another.
Strawberry & Almond Extract
I try really hard to not use a lot of artificial extracts in my baking. They aren’t always accessible and, as their name says, they’re artificial. Nothing tastes quite like strawberry as an actual strawberry. That said, these cookies are so darn yummy, I’m willing to overlook the use of food dye and extracts in the name of these joyful and whimsical cookies.
Gluten-Free Option
Since the celiac diagnosis of my oldest daughter, I have gone back through some of her favorite recipes and have made them celiac friendly with a gluten-free option. This strawberry almond sprinkle cookie was at the top of her list.
To make these cookies gluten-free simply swap the regular all-purpose flour out for a gluten-free baking blend and add in ¾ teaspoon of xanthan gum if your gluten-free mix doesn’t already include it. You will also want to double-check the sprinkles to ensure they, too, are gluten-free.

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon baking powder
-
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
-
1 cup dairy-free white chocolate chips **

Instructions
Strawberry Almond Sprinkle Cookies
-
Preheat the oven to 350ºF degrees and line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.
-
In the bowl of a stand mixer cream butter and sugar on high for 3 minutes until light and fluffy.
-
Add in eggs, strawberry extract, and almond extract and mix until fully incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. *If using pink food colouring, add in 3-5 drops now.
-
Add in the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt into the bowl and mix on low until fully incorporated and dough forms.
-
Mix the white chocolate chips and sprinkles in by hand with a spatula.
-
Using a 1.5 tbsp cookie scoop drop cookie dough onto parchment-lined cookie trays approximately 2 inches apart and bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the centers appear just slightly under-baked.
-
Let cool on the tray for at least 10 minutes before removing it to a cookie rack. Enjoy!
Notes
* To make gluten-free, use a gluten-free 1:1 baking blend (I love this one) in place of the regular all-purpose flour. Add in ¾ teaspoon of xanthan gum if your gluten-free blend does not contain it.
** Use regular butter and white chocolate chips if you are not dairy-free.

When I first saw these pop up on someone’s Instagram feed months ago I knew I needed them. That’s when I first started following you. The biggest issue was that I could not find the strawberry flavoring anywhere. In the end I subbed lemon and they were still good! I finally did find the strawberry and plan on making these this spring!

I’m glad you found some strawberry! I can’t wait to hear what you think of them!
I’ve made these cookies twice now and switched it up a bit each time. First time I couldn’t find strawberry extract so we used lemon which was quite delish! Second time I didn’t have any chocolate chips so I used Reese’s pieces from my Halloween stash hahahaha and just went with vanilla extract instead. Both time so delicious!! Will definitely be using this recipe as my cookie go to forever!
★★★★★
Mmmm I gotta try the lemon extract idea out for myself!
These cookies are amazing! Easy to make. I wasn’t able to use the almond extract, substituted vanilla instead.
