Hi, Sam. Do you think I could make these two days in advance, leave them in the freezer, and then bake them the day of?

Family loves these! Planning on making these and the Brown Sugar Cinnamon pop tart cookies as part of the church’s sunrise breakfast this year. Tempted to try some with a homemade blueberry jam.

In reply to Nash. As long as it's thick enough it should work fine. :)

In reply to Rob.

Another 5-star WOW cookie recipe!! These are sooo good, and like all the other recipes here, they’re so different than anything folks have ever seen.

One tiny addition we made was to add 2 drops of (vegetable-based) red food coloring to the icing. It gave the icing a really nice pink hue that worked with the whole strawberry “thing”.

We also used our recently homemade strawberry jelly as the filler.

Thanks Sam, another incredible recipe

In reply to Sarah Richards.

I did this and they turned out beautifully! I put half the cookie dough in the bottom of a glass pan, spread the filling on, then spread the rest of the dough gently over the top with my fingers. Then I baked for 30 minutes but I think it would have been done at 25 minutes as they were slightly crumbly.

In reply to Rebecca. Hi Rebecca! I'm not sure how they would hold their shape. :)

Do you think these could be rolled out like pie crust to create shaped filled cookies?

In reply to Kymberly. Hi Kymberly! I think the refrigerator could work. You will want to leave them in there twice as long as they may spread a little bit more, but I think it will work just fine. Enjoy! :)

In reply to Sam. Instead of freezing them, can they go back into the fridge (step 2 of assembly)? I don't really have a lot of freezer space in my apartment.

In reply to Sarah Richards. Hi Sarah! I'm not sure how that would work. I haven't tried it. Let me know how it goes if you do try it. :)

In reply to Maureen. Can I just make these into cookie bars?

In reply to Rob. Hi Rob! You can omit it, but your icing won't firm up quite as nicely and will be a bit thinner.

Delicious! Pop Tart taste delivered!
My family thoroughly enjoyed the strawberry flavored cookies. I made sugar cinnamon filling with maple cinnamon frosting for my daughter and they are her new favorite. Thanks, Sam. As always, a keeper.

In reply to Jody. Hi Jody! Most of my recipes should be able to be halved without issue. Some of the measurements can get kind of tricky when they are halved though and how I would handle it varies from recipe to recipe so if you ever have a question about an amount before trying it I'm happy to help. :)
