Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, cream butter and sugar together with an electric mixer for 2-3 minutes until smooth and light colored.
1/2 cup unsalted butter, 1 cup sugar
Add egg and vanilla extract and continue mixing for an additional minute.
1 egg, 1 tsp vanilla extract
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and sea salt.
1 3/4 cups flour, 2 tsp baking powder, 1/2 tsp sea salt
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, half at a time and mix until just combined.
Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in the diced strawberries until evenly mixed.
1 cup fresh strawberries
Using a 2 TBS cookie scoop, scoop cookies onto a lined baking sheet, two inches apart.
Generously sprinkle the tops of each cookie with sugar.
Bake cookies at 350 degrees for 10-11 minutes. Immediately after baking, gently round each cookie with a flat spatula or with the glass method.
Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for several minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store cookies in an airtight container for 3-5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
