Strawberries ‘n’ Cream Cookies

Strawberries & cream – such a quintessential summer dessert, no?  For the longest time I hate the weirdest disgust for whipped cream and just couldn’t stand the stuff.

 

Why?  Y’all, if I had an answer for that I would definitely let you know.  Part of me thinks it’s because we didn’t really eat it a lot growing up, so I just got scared and declared I didn’t like it.  I don’t know; I have no excuses for that girl.

 

But now?  While I don’t just want to devour it on everything I eat (and goodness knows I don’t like the canned stuff even today!), when you get a big bowl of strawberries and dip ’em in fresh whipped cream?  I doubt there could be a better mascot for the summer months dessert-wise!

Last week I got these amazing samples from Lindt of their newest flavor – Strawberries ‘n’ Cream – and just felt so inspired to make some cookies with them!  Not that there’s anything wrong with just outright eating the bar; white chocolate with strawberries in it?  Sounds like a really easy on-the-go snack to me 😉  But in cookie form – well, that just takes indulgence to the next level.

 

Plus, you know, I needed help eating the chocolate and cookies are the best way to get Nate to eat anything.  Trust me.  And I know he’s nodding in agreement right now!

 

So go ahead – grab yourself a couple bars, some sugar, flour and eggs, and let’s get started!

STRAWBERRIES ‘N’ CREAM COOKIES

Makes about 24 cookies

  • 2 sticks butter, softened
  • 1-1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 whole eggs (Great Day Farms All Naturals for the win!)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2-1/4 cups flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 Lindt Strawberries & Creme bars, chopped
  • 1/2 cup freeze-dried strawberries, lightly chopped

Preheat oven to 350. Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, then add the eggs and vanilla and mix until well incorporated. Gently mix in the flour, baking soda and salt until just combined. Fold in the chopped chocolate and freeze-dried strawberries until evenly mixed. Drop by the tablespoonful 2 inches apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a Silpat, and then bake at 350 for 8-12 minutes until the bottoms are just starting to turn golden brown. Let cool for about 5 minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer carefully to a wire rack.

Just two gals who crushed a 50 minute run today! Just two gals who crushed a 50 minute run today! 

As we move into goal setting for the new year, may I suggest starting with your physical health? Not to fit the bikini body mold that society normalizes, but to actually BE as healthy as possible. When everything hit the fan for me this year I dug into two things that have been integral to creating positive growth and a healthier mindset: 

1️⃣ my relationship with God
2️⃣ my physical health

What that’s looked like for me on the health front: holding fast to my commitment to whole food nutrition, grace for the days when I choose otherwise, pushing myself to lift heavier in workouts, and taking up running again. 

What’s happened as a result? When I push myself physically, when I choose to practice discipline to do what I know is best for my body, it makes it infinitely easier to choose that same healthy discipline in every other area of life. You want to dominate your goals? Start with your health!
Remember when I blogged about food? 😂 Gosh the Remember when I blogged about  food? 😂 Gosh the past few months have been nuts. I’m still over here figuring out how to eat well without sacrificing my life in the kitchen, and this is a bowl I couldn’t NOT share with y’all. The best thing is that everything is almost always on hand in my fridge, it’s packed with nutrition, and tastes AMAZING!

In the bowl:
-rice mixed with Trader Joe’s Zhoug sauce
-broiled shredded Brussels sprouts
-chickpeas
-baby  arugula
-grilled chicken breast
-Romesco sauce (from Trader  Joe’s but I usually make my own)
-a little  tzaziki sauce

This meal has been on repeat all week, only changing the rice for riced cauliflower and omitting the chickpeas on low carb days. YUM! I find that if I have a variety of roasted veggies, grilled chicken, and a few different sauces on hand I can almost always come up with a great bowl for almost any meal!
It’s a beautiful day for Small Business Saturday It’s a beautiful day for Small Business Saturday y’all! Almost 4 years ago I took a leap of faith and said yes to this job in an effort to create another stream of revenue. I had NO CLUE that it would change my life for the better in almost every way, that it would reignite my passion for health and community, that it would provide in so many beautiful ways. But it has, and I am so thankful to all of you who have trusted me and supported me along the way. 

When you shop with a small business you are literally a hero in their eyes, validating and supporting and protecting them. You guys are my heroes, and I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️

3 things you can do RIGHT NOW to improve your day: 3 things you can do RIGHT NOW to improve your day:

1️⃣ SMILE! Even if you don’t feel like it, smiling (even forcing it to the point of feeling weird) has actually been scientifically proven to improve mood, lower stress, and boost your immune system. I actually recommend doing it awkwardly around other people because it’ll make them smile too 😉

2️⃣ GRATITUDE! Right now, before you talk yourself out of it, say or write 3 things you’re thankful for. Big, small, or in between. In this moment I’m going to say sticky notes, my Le Creuset Dutch Oven, and the Hamilton soundtrack. BOOM!

3️⃣MOVE! Get up off your tush, right now, and move your body. Walk around your house, do some jumping jacks, lock yourself in the bathroom and do a little dance, whatever. This isn’t about looking cool, it’s about giving yourself a better day. 

Things are hard, ambiguity and uncertainty isn’t fun, but we can control ONE THING: ourselves. Praying that you choose to gift yourself a little bit of happiness today! 

Now, tell me below, what’s one thing you’re thankful for RIGHT NOW?
HASHTAG MOOD. Y’all, I’m so jealous of my dog HASHTAG MOOD. Y’all, I’m so jealous of my dog 😂 Who else feels me here? 🙋🏼‍♀️ #dogdays #2020mood
