Description
Delightful cookies infused with colorful fruit jello, perfect for family gatherings and creating cherished memories.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1 package fruit jello (any flavor)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar until creamy and light in color (about 3-5 minutes).
- Mix in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, until well combined.
- Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
- Gently fold in the jello into the cookie dough until streaked with vibrant color.
- Using a cookie scoop or spoon, portion the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space in between each cookie.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For a nutty flavor, substitute whole wheat flour; for a dairy-free option, replace butter with vegan butter or applesauce.
