Chocolate Dipped, Strawberry Frosted Sugar Cookies



So, what’s a girl to do with a big ol’ container of leftover strawberry frosting?

That’s the question I pondered while strolling through the supermarket aisles.  Well, strolling isn’t the best word.  When it comes to shopping I tend to be a go in, get what I need, and get the heck outta there kind of person. The refrigerated rolls of sugar cookie dough did catch my eye, though.

I brought a package home thinking “cookie sandwiches.”  As a rule I’m not much of a pink person, but the more I thought about it, the more I realized the frosting was just too pretty to cover with a cookie.

That’s when cookie genius struck, as it (ahem) usually does.  Why not frost the cookie, showing off the sweet, fluffy pinkness, and then dip half of it in dark, rich chocolate for a nice contrast? Sweet, simple, and tasty. 

Frost the cookies.
Chill for an hour or two.
Melt some chocolate and grab some sprinkles.
Voila! How easy was that?

We're thrilled you've finally arrived!

Your brother and sister and I made you a special treat.
We cut out sugar cookies. . .




and put them on a sheet to bake.


Your sister oversaw the cooling process.


Then it was time to decorate them.

Look how hard your big brother is working.
The cookies sure were beautiful and tasty.















We're just sorry you can't eat them yet.
