  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: Approximately 12 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 200g all-purpose flour
  • 100g unsalted butter, softened
  • 80g granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons strawberry powder or freeze-dried strawberries, crushed
  • 250g mascarpone cheese or cream cheese
  • 150ml heavy cream
  • 300g fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 3 tablespoons strawberry jam
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • Shortbread cookie crumbs for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined. Stir in the strawberry powder.
  2. Gradually add the flour and salt until just combined. Form into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll out chilled dough to about 1/4 inch thickness and cut into boat shapes. Place on parchment-lined baking sheets.
  4. Use your thumb or a spoon to create indentations in each cookie for filling. Bake for 12-15 minutes until set but not browned. Cool completely.
  5. Beat mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth; transfer to a piping bag.
  6. For the glaze, heat strawberry jam with water until melted; allow it to cool slightly.
  7. Pipe the cream filling into each cooled cookie boat, top with sliced strawberries, and brush gently with glaze.
  8. Garnish with shortbread crumbs if desired; refrigerate until serving.
