Filling:

Instructions
- Preheat oven and prepare baking sheets: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Prepare dough: In a large bowl, beat butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla. In a separate bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Fold in strawberries and white chocolate.

- Assemble cookies: Scoop 2 tablespoons of dough, flatten, place a cream cheese cube in the center, and wrap dough around it. Place cookies on prepared sheets.

Notes
- Keep cream cheese cold to prevent spreading.
- Chilled cookies have a firmer texture.
