Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a stand mixer, cream together softened unsalted butter and light brown sugar for about 2 minutes until fluffy.
  3. Mix in one large egg and vanilla extract, beating for another 2 minutes until fully incorporated.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt, then gradually add to the wet mixture until just combined.
  5. Fold in the freeze-dried strawberries and chocolate chips gently using a spatula.
  6. Scoop the dough onto the baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are set and centers are slightly gooey.
  8. Let cookies cool on baking sheets for about 15 minutes before transferring.
  9. Melt semisweet chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring until smooth.
  10. Dip the cooled cookies in the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off and place on parchment to set.
