Instructions

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, cream cheese, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2-3 minutes, scraping sides as needed.
Add the eggs and vanilla bean paste to the butter mixture and mix on low until combined.
Slowly add the flour mixture in small batches, mixing until just combined and no streaks of flour remain.
Gently fold in the freeze-dried strawberries, white chocolate chips, and graham cracker pieces using a wooden spoon or spatula. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Use a medium cookie scoop to drop dough balls onto the prepared sheet.
Bake for 10-11 minutes until edges are golden brown and cookies are set.
Remove from the oven, place on a wire rack to cool, and garnish with additional strawberries, white chocolate chips, and graham cracker pieces while still warm.

Notes

Chilling the dough helps the cookies maintain their shape and improve texture.
Experiment with different types of chocolate for a unique flavor twist.
Store cookies in an airtight container to keep them fresh.
