Tips:
- Use ripe, fresh strawberries: This will ensure the best flavor and texture in your cookies.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing can result in tough cookies. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies until the edges are just beginning to brown: Overbaking will dry out the cookies.
- Let the cookies cool completely before decorating: This will help the frosting set properly.
- Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Strawberry wedding bell cookies are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for any occasion. They're easy to make and can be decorated to match any theme. With their delicate flavor and beautiful appearance, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
