We want to use the freshest ingredients, with any delicious cake, so Funsnax frosted strawberry cookies​ are no exception. I adore recipes that include fresh strawberries, but if you are new to baking and need to learn better, they just have way too much natural moisture which squishes out in the cake as it bakes. You can use freeze-dried strawberries for a chewy texture.

Olivia’s Helpful Tips

One of the helpful tips for the Funsnax strawberry frosted cookies recipe is the ingredient selection step. You should make sure to choose juicy, bright red strawberries. 

You should not overmix the dough. This will make your cookies a bit chewy. When the dough is perfectly mixed and ready to bake, you should not skip the chilling step. Dough chilling is the key to keeping the cookies perfectly shaped without spreading into one big lump.

For storing, Funsnax strawberry frosted cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. Moreover, you can also freeze some of the dough so you can bake fresh cookies whenever you crave them!

What Are Ingredient Substitutes? 

Baking is a blast, but sometimes you might run out of an ingredient or need to tweak the recipe for dietary reasons. Thankfully, the substitutes will still make your Funsnax frosted strawberry cookies​ tasty.

All-purpose flourAlmond flour: Almond adds a slightly nutty flavor and a tender texture 
Oat flour: My favorite cookie recipe made with this flour is the Oatmeal cookie recipe no brown sugar, the cookies may be chewier
Coconut flour: 1/4 to 1/3 cup coconut flour and add an egg to maintain the right consistency.
ButterCoconut Oil: The cookies will be a little more crumbly Vegetable Fat: Adding a pinch of salt for extra flavor 
EggFlaxseed meal: Mix 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal with 3 tablespoons water to replace one egg. This option will add a bit of nutty flavor and increase the fiber content.
Chia seeds: Similar to flaxseed, mix 1 tablespoon chia seeds with 3 tablespoons of water for each egg. This will create a gel-like consistency that acts as a binder.
Applesauce: Use 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce to replace one egg. It adds moisture and a mild apple flavor, making for softer cookies.
Banana: Mash 1/2 of a ripe banana as a substitute for one egg. This will add sweetness and a hint of banana flavor, which can complement the strawberries.

What Can Funsnax Strawberry Cookies Be Served With?

Funsnax strawberry frosted cookies​ are a great treat on their own. But you have plenty of options to pair them with to elevate the experience.

A safe first choice is to pair Funsnax strawberry cookies with drinks. The creamy texture of milk balances the sweet and tart flavors of the cookies. Strawberry-flavored milk will help double the strawberry flavor.

But older people may not like eating Funsnax strawberry cookies with milk. Herbal teas, chamomile, or mint can be a great choice.

In addition, cappuccinos and lattes are common pairings. Every morning, I usually treat myself to a little vanilla frappé with my cookies. You can consider pairing cookies with sliced ​​strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries. This can be a fun snack.

In addition, Greek yogurt mix with a little honey and a dash of vanilla extract can create a simple yet delicious dip. This pairs wonderfully with cookies and adds a creamy texture to the experience.
