Directions

Step one
Preheat oven to 350°F. Pour freeze dried strawberries into a resealable bag and crush to fine crumbs. Stir cookie mix, crushed strawberries, melted butter, egg, and water together in a large bowl until well blended.
-
Step two
Spray baking sheet with PAM® Cooking Spray. Divide dough evenly into 12 portions, about 1-1/2 tablespoons each. Roll into balls and place on baking sheet. Using your palm, flatten dough into 1-1/2-inch circles.
-
Step three
Bake 10 to 12 minutes, until edges are lightly browned. Remove cookies from oven and use the back of a spoon to create a dimple in the center of each cookie about 1-inch wide. Remove cookies to wire rack to cool completely.
-
Step four
Fill the center of each cookie with frosting and decorate with sprinkles. Enjoy! For a heart-shaped frosting center, squeeze two dots of frosting next to each other on cookie and draw the back of a spoon through them to make a heart shape!
