Ingredients

Chocolate Cookies

  • 1 1/2 cups Simple Truth flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 3/4 cup unsalted Simple Truth butter *at room temperature
  • 1 1/4 cups Simple Truth sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp. vanilla

Strawberry Creme Filling

  • 1 stick unsalted Simple Truth butter at room temperature
  • 4 oz. Simple Truth cream cheese at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup fresh strawberries sliced
  • 4 cups powdered sugar
  • 12 oz. milk chocolate chips
  • candy sprinkles

Instructions

Chocolate Cookies

  • In a small mixing bowl, combine Simple Truth flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, cream Simple Truth butter and sugar until smooth.
  • Beat in egg and vanilla, then gradually add dry ingredients and mix until dough forms.
  • Gather dough into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and flatten. Chill 1 hour.
  • Remove dough from refrigerator and roll out onto a floured surface. Dough should be approx. 1/8 inch thick.
  • Use cookie cutters to cut into 36 cookies. (*I used a 2 1/2 inch cookie cutter. Number of cookies may vary based on cookie cutter size.)
  • Place cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 375° for 10 minutes.
  • Cool 10 minutes on baking sheet, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.

Strawberry Creme Filling

  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine butter and cream cheese. Mix until blended and creamy.
  • Puree strawberries; blend puree into butter mixture.
  • Add powdered sugar, a little bit at a time, until you reach desired consistency. (I used all 4 cups.)
  • Chill filling 1 hour or until firm. Spread filling generously inside 2 chocolate sugar cookies. Scrape edges as needed.
  • Melt chocolate chips; drizzle over sandwich cookies and top with candy sprinkles.
