Equipment
- Round Cookie Cutter 3 inch
- Frosting Knife
Ingredients
FOR THE COOKIE CRUST
- ½ cup butter (1 stick) softened
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg room temperature
- 2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour sifted
- 2 teaspoon cornstarch
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
FOR THE TOPPING
- 8 oz cream cheese softened
- ½ cup butter softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar sifted
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- variety of fruits of your choice
Instructions
FOR THE COOKIE CRUST
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter for 1-2 minutes using a stand or handheld mixer. Mix in the sugar on medium speed until fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the sifted flour, cornstarch, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients with the mixer on low speed and continue to mix until fully combined. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 1 hour to avoid spreading.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and prepare a greased cookie sheet. Once chilled, roll out the dough about ½ an inch thick and cut out your cookies using a round cookie cutter. Place cookies on the pan evenly spaced. Bake for 8-10 minutes until the edges begin to lightly brown. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
FOR THE TOPPING
- Cream together the cream cheese and butter for 1-2 minutes until smooth. Mix in the vanilla extract. On low speed, slowly mix in the sifted powdered sugar until fully combined.
- Cover each cookie in a thick layer of cream cheese frosting. Decorate with the fruit of your choice!
Notes
- For a chewier cookie crust texture, bake the cookies for 8 minutes. For a cookie with a crispier edge, bake for 10 minutes.
- Cut the fruit into small bite-sized pieces to decorate the cookies.
