Tips for Making these Chocolate Covered Strawberry Cookies

Be sure to refrigerate the dough before rolling it out. That will make rolling out the dough so much easier. If you don’t refrigerate the dough first, it might be hard to work will the stick more easily.

When making this recipe, you’ll be able to make 20 Chocolate Covered Strawberry Sandwiches when using a 3-inch heart cookie cutter.

Be sure to cool the cookie fully before frosting. If the cookies are warm, the frosting will try to melt off.

Frost the edges of the outside edge of the cookie and then press the cookies together to distribute the frosting more easily.

When making the frosting be sure to puree the strawberries well. I like to use my hand blender  for this job but you can also use a regular blender or food processor.

Melt or soften the butter to make it easier to incorporate the strawberries with the butter. The strawberry butter mixture also makes a yummy strawberry butter for toast when you leave out the powdered sugar.

I like to refrigerate these cookies once they are frosted since the strawberries are fresh or frozen in the frosting.
