Ingredients

Scale

Cookie Fries

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (slightly melted, 1 stick)
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg (room temperature)
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup colorful edible confetti or sprinkles

Frosting Dip

  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup cream cheese (softened)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Prepare Baking Sheets: Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, kosher salt, and baking powder until thoroughly combined. Set this mixture aside.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugar: Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat the slightly melted unsalted butter and brown sugar on high speed until the mixture becomes light and fluffy, about 2 minutes, creating a smooth base for the dough.
  4. Add Egg and Vanilla: Beat in the large egg and pure vanilla extract until fully incorporated, roughly 30 seconds, ensuring the mixture is smooth.
  5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and beat on low speed just until combined; avoid overmixing to keep the dough tender.
  6. Fold in Sprinkles: Gently fold the colorful edible confetti or sprinkles into the dough to evenly distribute the bursts of color.
  7. Chill Dough: Cover the dough bowl and refrigerate it for 30 minutes to firm it up, making it easier to roll out and cut.
  8. Roll Out Dough: Lightly flour a clean work surface. Divide the dough into thirds and roll out one portion at a time to approximately 3/8-inch thickness for even cookie fries.
  9. Cut Cookie Fries: Using a crinkle cutter or sharp knife, slice the rolled dough into strips about 1/2 inch wide and 4 inches long, creating fun, varied fry shapes similar to real fries.
  10. Freeze Cookie Fries: Arrange the cut cookie fries on the prepared baking sheets, ensuring they fit in the freezer. Freeze them for 20 minutes to help maintain shape during baking.
  11. Preheat Oven: Set the oven to 350°F (175°C) and allow it to reach the correct temperature.
  12. Bake Cookie Fries: Remove one tray of frozen cookie fries from the freezer and place it on the center oven rack. Bake for 10-12 minutes. The cookies will be soft when removed but will continue to firm up as they cool on the hot baking sheet.
  13. Make Frosting Dip: In a bowl, combine heavy cream, softened cream cheese, and powdered sugar. Mix thoroughly until smooth and creamy, perfect for dipping.
  14. Serve: Arrange the cookie fries on a platter and serve alongside the frosting dip for a delightful dipping experience.

Notes

  • Refrigerating the dough is essential for easier handling and better texture.
  • Freezing the cookie fries before baking helps them keep their shape and prevents spreading.
  • Allow cookie fries to cool on the baking sheet to finish baking and firm up for the best texture.
  • Feel free to customize with different types of sprinkles or edible decorations.
  • Use softened cream cheese to ensure a smooth frosting dip texture.
