Giant Family Cookie Covered in Strawberries
So I usually do frugal food Friday, but this recipe is slightly more expensive unless you can get the berries for a really good price or grow them yourself. Then it would be a great deal, plus it looks like a million bucks. I learned to make this through Pampered Chef years ago and have made many adaptations to it since then. The first thing you need to do is mix up a batch of your favorite chocolate chip cookies. We all have our own recipe so I'm foregoing that step here. Instead of making individual cookies, make one massive cookie. If your cookie tray is rectangular, make it that shape. Sometimes I use my stones and make a circle cookie. Just remember that the cookie dough expands in the oven and you don't want any going off the sides of your tray into the hot oven so adjust the amount of dough.
Once baked and cooled, you can start with all your other ingredients and prep everything for assembly. You will need:
1. one package of cream cheese, softened
2. one large bottle of marshmallow fluff
3. one pound of strawberries, sliced
4. half a package of chocolate chips, melted
Mix the cream cheese and marshmallow fluff. This is your first layer. Cover your cookie with it and spread generously. Now arrange your strawberries over the whole thing. Once finished with that, drizzle your melted chocolate over the whole thing making a pleasant pattern. You can get creative and add all kinds of other things: nuts of any variety, any type of chopped up chocolate bar, m&ms, etc. The combinations are endless!
Hope you have fun with this! It will feed a big crowd and would be a wonderful treat for Easter! With that said, I hope you have a blessed Easter!
