Strawberry Sugar Cookies

My family is a cookie family. We have to have some type of homemade cookie in the house at least once a week. One day I was craving cookies but wanted something a bit different. Strawberry popped into my head and I came up with this simple, delicious strawberry sugar cookie recipe. No need to chill the dough! This recipe makes 6 cookies but you can easily double it. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as my family does. Please let me know your thoughts below :)
