Servings 24 Cookie Bars
Calories 155kcal
Ingredients
- ¾ cup unsalted butter softened
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 box Jell-O Lime gelatin, dry 3 oz
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 ½ cups of all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 pouch Betty Crocker Cookie Icing white
- sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F degrees. Line (2) baking sheets with parchment paper or silicon baking sheets. Set aside.
- In a small bowl mix the flour, salt, and baking powder until combined. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, using an electric mixer or a stand mixer, cream the butter for 1-3 minutes. Add sugar and dry JELL-O powder and beat on high for 1-2 minutes. Add eggs and vanilla. Add the flour mixture and mix until just combined.
- Using a rolling pin, roll the dough out. Cut the dough into small little bars, about 1.5in x 3in. Place dough bars on prepared baking sheet and place in freezer for 10 minutes. (this will help them keep their shape)
- Bake for 8 minutes (or until slightly golden at the edges). Let cool.
- Once cool, drizzle with royal icing and sprinkles.
Notes
- Swap out your Jello to make these any fruity flavor you'd like!
