Equipment

  • Stand Mixer
  • cookie sheet
  • parchment paper
  • Rolling Pin
  • cookie scoop

Ingredients
  

Cookies

  • 1 cup salted butter room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 pcs eggs room temperature
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon corn starch
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt

Frosting

  • 0.5 cup salted butter room temperature
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2-4 tablespoon heavy cream or milk room temperature
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt

Crunch topping

  • 20 pcs Golden Oreos
  • 2 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 box strawberry jello mix 3 oz
  • 4 tablespoon salted butter melted
  • red or pink food dye optional

Instructions
 

Cookies

  • Preheat the oven to 350°. In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the butter and granulated sugar for 3-5 minutes, or until light and fluffy. Add in the vanilla and eggs. Mix on low until just incorporated.
  • While the mixer is on low, slowly add in the flour, corn starch, baking powder and salt and mix until everything is just incorporated. Do not over mix.
  • Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and use a large cookie scoop (about 2 ½ tablespoons of dough per cookie) to make 18 dough balls. Space 2-3 inches apart. Use a round glass and press the bottom onto the cookie dough to flatten. Bake for 10-11 minutes or until the edges are just set.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the pan for 3 minutes before transferring to a cookie rack to cool completely. If the cookies spread, use a glass or bowl to gently reshape.

Frosting

  • While the cookies are cooling make the frosting. In the bowl of a stand mixer beat the butter, powdered sugar, vanilla and almost extract until smooth. Add in heavy cream 1 tablespoon at a time until it reaches the desired consistency.

Crunch topping

  • Place 20 Golden Oreos in a large zip-top bag. Seal and use a rolling pin or heavy-bottomed glass to crush into a mixture medium and fine crumbs. A few larger bits are good for texture.
  • Pour the crushed Oreos into a large bowl and stir in the granulated sugar. Then scoop about half of the mixture into another bowl. To the new bowl add strawberry Jell-O powder and mix well.
  • Melt the butter and pour half into the plain bowl of crushed cookies. Optional: add a dot of red or pink food dye to the rest of the butter, mix to incorporate and add to the crushed cookies with the jello mixture.
  • Add the strawberry mixture back to the larger bowl and gently mix to evenly incorporate. Pour onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 8-9 minutes.

Assembly

  • Once the cookies have completely cooled spread about 2 tablespoons of frosting onto each. Sprinkle the crunch mixture on top and serve!
