Our home economists needed just six ingredients to make these sweet treats that start with store-bought cookie dough. Theyâre sure to be the star at Fourth of July celebrations, but theyâre great for any summer occasion. Ingredients:
1 tube (18 ounces) refrigerated sugar cookie dough, softened |
1/4 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened |
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar |
24 small fresh strawberries, thinly sliced |
4 large kiwifruit, peeled and sliced or 1 cup fresh blueberries |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, beat cookie dough and flour until combined. Roll on a lightly floured surface to 1/4-in. thickness. Cut with a floured 3-in. star-shaped cookie cutter.
2. Place 1 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 350° for 8-10 minutes or until edges are golden brown. Cool for 1 minute before removing to wire racks to cool completely.
3. For frosting, in a small bowl, beat cream cheese and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Set aside 1-2 tablespoons. Spread remaining frosting over cookies. Place five strawberry slices on each cookie. Using reserved frosting, attach one kiwi slice or 4-5 blueberries to each. Store in the refrigerator. Yield: 2 dozen.
