The sound of the ice cream truck has even my husband running out to the curb with money in hand. Our neighborhood has a big potluck on the Fourth of July, so I decided to make cookies that resemble Bomb Pops. These were a big hit! -Darlene Brenden, Salem, Oregon

These cookies are a bit messy to make, but they're totally worth it. The Jell-O filling can get a little sticky, but it's part of what makes these cookies so special.

I had some trouble finding the Jell-O flavor that the recipe called for, but I was able to substitute another flavor and the cookies still turned out great.

I'm not a big fan of Jell-O, but I loved these cookies! The Jell-O filling is subtle and doesn't overpower the other flavors.

These cookies are so easy to make, even beginner bakers can handle them. I made them with my 8-year-old daughter and she had a blast.

The cookies turned out perfectly! They're chewy and soft on the inside, with a crispy outer shell. The Jell-O filling adds a nice pop of flavor.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover Jell-O. I always have a few boxes in my pantry, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use them for.
