Is the end of the school year and the beginning of summer absolutely crazy for you?  Both Jello Girl and I have had jam packed schedules for the last couple of months.

We are back now with a fun summer recipe for you.  It’s something different, something not too hard and it just might be a go to recipe for all the summer picnics, BBQ’s, family reunions and whatever else you like to do in the summer time.

Jello Cookies

1 Tbsp. vinegar plus enough canned milt to make 1 cup, combine vinegar and milk and set aside

1 C. soft butter

1 1/2 C. sugar

1 box jello(3 oz.)

2 eggs (unbeaten)

2 tsp. vanilla

In a mixer or a bowl, mix above ingredients while adding soured milk and…

6 1/2 C. flour

2 tsp. soda

2 tsp. salt

Preheat oven to 425,  roll out dough and cut in desired shapes and cook for 10-12 min.

I cheated with the frosting. I bought cream cheese frosting.  But next time I try these cookies I am going to make some cream cheese frosting from scratch.  Just think of the possibilities, you could use any kind of jello and garnish with whatever fruit is in season, or it doesn’t even need a fruit garnish.   The flavored whipped cream might be really yummy on this cookie or maybe even a poured frosting or a marshmallow fondant.  If you try this recipe, please send in your thoughts and comments.  We would love to hear what flavor you tried and see pictures of your jello cookie creations.

Now go have some jello cookie joy!
