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.
Chocolate Chip Stars
and Stripes Cookies
- 1 (16.5-ounce) package 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.
