- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup fresh strawberries (sliced)
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 5 tablespoons butter
- 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg white
- 2/3 cups all purpose flour
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons milk
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instruction
- Preheat oven to 375°. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- In a saucepan, combine strawberries and 1/4 cup sugar mashing strawberries to release juices. Let sit for about 5 minutes. Cook on medium heat, stirring occasionally and crushing strawberries until thick and jam like. Remove from heat to cool.
- In a medium bowl, beat granulated sugar and butter with a mixer at medium speed until well-blended, 3-5 minutes. Add 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla and egg white, beat well for 1 minute.
- In another bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt, stirring well with a whisk. Add flour mixture to sugar mixture, stirring until well-blended.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide dough in half. Roll each portion into a 12-inch log. Place both logs 3 inches apart on a baking sheet . With the end of a wooden spoon (or finger) form a trough down the length of each log.
- Spoon strawberries into the troughs of each log.
- Bake at 375° for 20 minutes. Remove logs to a cutting board.
- Combine powdered sugar, milk and extract to form a thin glaze. Drizzle sugar mixture over warm logs. Immediately cut each log diagonally into 12 slices. Do not separate slices. Let cool for 10 minutes, separate slices and cool completely.
- (Do not separate slices.) Cool 10 minutes; separate slices. Transfer slices to wire racks. Cool completely.
