3. Shape the Cookies:
  • Roll the dough into small balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Make an indentation in the center of each cookie with your thumb or a small spoon.
4. Fill with Strawberry Mixture:
  • Spoon a small amount of the strawberry filling into the indentation of each cookie.
