Star Cookies for the 4th of July

This recipe comes from the NESTLÉ® website. There they suggest you use 1 pkg. NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Refrigerated Chocolate Chip Cookie Bar Dough but I prefer to use my own sugar cookie recipe. I also leave out the chocolate mini morsels.


Your favorite sugar cookie recipe.

1 pkg. (8 oz.) cream cheese, at room temperature
1/3 cup granulated sugar
24 fresh, medium strawberries, sliced
3/4 cup fresh blueberries
(optional) 2 tablespoons NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Semi-Sweet Chocolate Mini Morsels

PREHEAT oven according to the recipe of your choice.

ROLL your cookie dough to 1/4-inch thickness and cut cookie dough into stars with 3-inch star cookie cutter. Transfer cookies to ungreased baking sheet.

BAKE cookies as it suggest in your recipe. If necessary, while hot, reshape and pat edges of each star back into shape with knife. Cool on baking sheet(s) for 2 minutes; remove to wire rack to cool completely.

BEAT cream cheese and sugar in small mixer bowl until fluffy. Spread onto cooled cookies. Place strawberry slices onto each cookie pointing outward. Place 5 to 6 blueberries in center of each cookie. IF desired you can top each cookie with morsels.
