Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Place spoonfuls of cookie dough about 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet.
- Bake until the edges are lightly golden, 15 to 19 minutes.
- While the cookies bake, knead the frosting pouch to soften it. Do not microwave. Squeeze the frosting into a small bowl.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes, then carefully transfer them to a plate. Dip each warm cookie into the frosting and enjoy immediately.
Recipe Tips
For best results, do not overbake the cookies; they should be soft in the center.
Let the cookies cool slightly before dipping so the frosting doesn’t melt too much.
If the frosting is too thick, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes.
