Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (for sprinkling)

How to Make Strawberry Cookie Cake

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
5. Spread the cookie dough evenly into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Once baked, allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. Once cooled, top the cake with the sliced strawberries and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar to enhance their sweetness.
9. Slice and serve, enjoying the delightful combination of cookie and fresh strawberries!
