Strawberry Cream Cheese Cookies – Easy Valentine’s Day Recipe

I use affiliate links in some of my posts. I may earn a commission if you use my links. Full disclosure.

NOTE: Please remember that I don’t eat this stuff so I did not test this recipe. I’m just posting so you can try it!

INGREDIENTS:
1 pouch Betty Crocker sugar cookie mix
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 oz , softened
1 egg
pink or red food color
optional: assorted candy sprinkles
(see my tips below)

DIRECTIONS:

1:  Heat oven to 375°F. Line cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper.

2:  In medium bowl, stir cookie mix, flour, softened cream cheese and egg until soft dough forms. Stir in food color to get desired pink color.

3:  Roll dough 1/4 inch thick on lightly floured surface. Cut with 2 1/2- to 3-inch . Place 1 inch apart on cookie sheet. If desired, decorate cookies as desired by pressing assorted sprinkles into dough.

4:  Bake 7 to 9 minutes or until light golden brown around edges. Remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 15 minutes.

Darlene’s Tips: If you can’t find strawberry cream cheese, you can use plain cream cheese. You could add strawberry extract or just leave it plain. Use the image as a guide if you plan on decorating with sprinkles. I love the stitched look by placing jimmies around the edges! You could also decorate by piping frosting on the cookies.

Easy Cookie Pops Recipe – Just 2 Store Bought Ingredients

I use affiliate links in some of my posts. I may earn a commission if you use my links. Full disclosure.

NOTE: Please remember that I don’t eat this stuff so I did not test this recipe. I’m just posting so you can try it!

INGREDIENTS:
1 roll (16.5 oz) Pillsbury refrigerated sugar cookies
24 , unwrapped (see tips below)
(see my tips below)

DIRECTIONS:

1:  Heat oven to 350°F. Line cookie sheets with cooking parchment paper.

2:  Cut cookie dough into 24 slices. Place cookie slices on cookie sheets about 2 1/2 inches apart.

3:  Press a pop in center of each cookie slice.

4:  Bake 9 to 12 minutes or until edges are light golden brown. Cool 5 minutes then remove from cookie sheets.

Darlene’s Tips: You don’t have to use Dum Dums. You can try any round ball type lollipop, just not the kind with gum in the center. Flat lollipops might also work, just not sure if they’d melt too much.
