Print Recipe

Delight in these homemade Strawberry Pop Tart Cookies featuring a flaky, buttery crust filled with sweet strawberry jam, perfect for a nostalgic dessert or snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup strawberry jam
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
  • 1 tablespoon milk (for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the cold butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat the egg, sugar, and vanilla extract until combined.
  5. Mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until a dough forms. Divide dough in half, wrap in plastic, and chill for 30 minutes.
  6. Roll out one half of the dough on a floured surface to about 1/8 inch thickness. Cut into rectangles approximately 3×4 inches.
  7. Place a teaspoon of strawberry jam in the center of half the rectangles, leaving edges clear.
  8. Brush edges with a little water, then top with remaining rectangles, sealing edges by pressing with a fork.
  9. Transfer to prepared baking sheet and prick tops with a fork to vent.
  10. Bake for 18-22 minutes or until edges are golden brown. Let cool completely.
  11. Mix powdered sugar and milk to make glaze, drizzle over cooled cookies, and let set before serving.

Notes

For extra crunch, sprinkle coarse sugar on top before baking or swap strawberry jam for your favorite fruit preserves.
