4 oz cream cheese softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon salt

Blot strawberries well to prevent excess moisture in the dough.
Chilling the dough helps cookies keep their shape and improves texture.
White chocolate drizzle can be replaced with a lemon glaze for a tangy variation.
