Method
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the softened butter and packed light brown sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
- Add the large egg and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture. Continue beating on medium-high speed until light and pale, about 2 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Add to the wet ingredients and beat on low until just combined, about 30 seconds.
- Gently fold in the freeze-dried strawberries and semisweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Using a 1 ½ ounce cookie scoop or large spoon, portion out dough balls onto the baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until puffed, set, and firm around the edges but gooey in the center.
- Allow the cookies to cool slightly on the sheets for about 15 minutes.
- In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine 1 cup of semisweet chocolate chips and 1 teaspoon of coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring until fully melted and smooth.
- Dip the bottom of each cooled cookie into the melted chocolate, scraping off excess before placing back on the parchment.
- Allow the cookies to sit for about 30 minutes, until the chocolate is set before serving.
