Some fruity, sugary, colorful cookies you can make whatever Jello flavor you like.
Ingredients:
- 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 3 sticks salted butter, room temperature
- 1 cup sugar, plus more for rolling
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 large (6 ounce) box of Jello, your favorite flavor
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line several baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, then beat in the eggs and vanilla. Beat in the flour and baking powder.
Beat in the Jello powder until evenly mixed.
Roll the dough into 1″ balls, and roll the balls in the extra sugar.
Space widely apart on the lined sheets.
Flatten to about a quarter inch with the flat bottom of a cup or ramekin.
Bake 9 minutes, cool on the pan for 5-10 minutes, then move with a spatula to a wire rack to cool completely.
I quite enjoyed the strawberry-ness from the Jello! If you wanted to make multiple colors/flavors, you can divide the dough into quarters and use 2-3 tablespoons of Jello powder per quarter.
