Ingredients:

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 egg, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C), and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a large bowl, beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until creamy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract, and beat until well combined.
Slowly add in the flour mixture, and beat until just combined.
Fold in the strawberries and chocolate chips.
Scoop the dough into balls (about 2 tablespoons each), and place them onto the prepared baking sheet, spaced 2 inches apart.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden brown.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
