JELLO Cookies

Who doesn't love Jello? 
Who doesn't love pinterest? 


We were headed to a friends house for a last minute get together and I didn't want to go empty handed so Isabelle and I whipped these cookies up in about 25 minutes or so. This was a recipe that we have been wanting to try. Fun and adds  flavors to a traditional sugar cookie for a twist. 
We decided on Lime and Strawberry. Our version of the pinterest inspired idea.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Beat butter in large bowl with mixer until creamy. Add sugar and beat until light and fluffy. Blend in egg and vanilla. Mix flour and baking powder in a separate bowl. Gradually beat in flour mixture.
  2. Divide dough into 4 sections. Sprinkle 2 Tb of jello onto each section. Knead together with dough. You may want to add a few drops of food coloring to make the dough more vibrant.
  3. Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Roll in the extra jello from the packets. Place, 2 inches apart, on baking sheets. Flatten with bottom of bowl.
  4. Bake 8 to 10 min at 350 on lined baking sheets. Cool on baking sheets 2 min. Remove to wire racks and cool completely.

    These were fun to make and really easy. We decided that these flavors would be good at Christmas time because of the colors. Now she is excited to try some new flavors including grape, blueberry and orange.
