An inspired display of American pride -
these star-shaped cookies are decorated with red juicy strawberries
and plump blueberries on velvety white cream cheese - all topped
with a sprinkle of chocolate chip mini morsels.

NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Refrigerated Chocolate Chip
Cookie Bar Dough
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, at room temperature
1/3 cup granulated sugar
24 fresh, medium strawberries, sliced
3/4 cup fresh blueberries
2 tablespoons NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Semi-Sweet Chocolate
Mini Morsels
- Preheat oven to 350ºF
(175ºC).
- Roll cookie dough to 1/4-inch
thickness between two pieces of wax paper. Remove top piece of
paper. Cut cookie dough into stars with 3-inch star cookie cutter.
Transfer cookies to ungreased baking sheet(s). (If stars are
too hard to remove from wax paper, refrigerate rolled dough for
10 minutes.) Roll remaining dough to 1/4-inch thickness; cut
out additional stars.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes
or until light golden brown. While hot, reshape and pat edges
of each star back into shape with knife. Cool on baking sheet(s)
for 2 minutes; remove to wire rack(s) to cool completely.
- Beat cream cheese and
sugar in small mixer bowl until fluffy. Spread onto cooled cookies.
Place strawberry slices onto each cookie pointing outward. Place
5 to 6 blueberries in center of each cookie. Top each cookie
with morsels.
Makes 20 cookies.
