Strawberry Cheesecake Cookies

1 1/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter, softened
4 oz cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup strawberries, chopped
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1-2 tablespoons flour

Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Pour the lemon juice over the strawberries and drain them after a little bit. In a mixing bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and salt together. In a separate bowl, mix the butter, sugar and cream cheese until fluffy. Gradually add the flour mixture. Sprinkle the strawberries with flour, then gently stir them into the batter. Drop the batter by heaping tablespoons onto parchment paper lined baking sheets. Put the cookies in the fridge for 5-10 minutes. Bake for 13-15 minutes until the edges are slightly brown. Let them cook, then set on wire racks.

Ohhhh mama! These were soooo good! They were a big hit at the party I took them too and super sweet.
