JELLO COOKIES

Provided by Jennifer Fishkind

Categories     Dessert

Time 27m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 17.5 ounce bag snickerdoodle cookie mix ((you will not be using the cinnamon-sugar package for this recipe))
½ cup (1 stick) salted butter ( melted)
1 large egg
3 tbsp red flavored gelatin powder ((about ½ of a 3 ounce package))
3 tbsp blue flavored gelatin powder ((about ½ of a 3 ounce package))
3 tbsp green flavored gelatin powder ((about ½ of a 3 ounce package))
3 tbsp yellow flavored gelatin powder ((about ½ of a 3 ounce package))
1 cup granulated white sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and prepare a sheet pan by lining it with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the cookie mix, melted butter, and egg until fully combined.
  • Separate the cookie dough evenly into four small mixing bowls.
  • To each bowl, knead in 3 Tablespoons of each color of flavored gelatin. You should have four different colored doughs when you finish. (I found it was easier to use my hands for this part)
  • Place the sugar in a shallow bowl, you will be rolling your cookies in it as you prepare them.
  • Scoop out the cookies using a 2 Tablespoon cookie scoop and roll them into balls. Roll them in the sugar until completely covered.
  • Place the balls on the prepared sheet pan with 2 inches between each cookie. Bake in the oven for 10-13 minutes or until the tops of the cookies get firm to the touch. You may begin to see a golden color on the tops of the cookies, if so take them out so that they don't overcook.

2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt

  • Add the rest of the ingredients.

Tips:

  • For a classic Jell-O cookie, use any flavor of Jell-O you like. But if you're looking for something more unique, try using two or more flavors of Jell-O. For example, you could make a strawberry-lemon cookie or a raspberry-lime cookie.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies at a moderate temperature. Baking the cookies at too high a temperature will cause them to brown too quickly and become overcooked.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them. Frosting the cookies while they're still warm will cause the frosting to melt and become runny.

Conclusion:

Jell-O sugar cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With a variety of flavors to choose from, there's sure to be a Jell-O cookie recipe that everyone will enjoy.
