Serve up a beautiful bite of spring with these super easy Fresh Strawberry Pie Cookie Cups! Sugar cookie crusts with a homemade strawberry pie filling, oh and this strawberry glaze doesn’t have Jello in it!

This post and recipe was created for #EasterSweetsWeek. I was sent samples by some of the sponsor companies but as always opinions are 100% mine.

Fresh Strawberry Pie Cookie Cups with Whipped Cream

There is just something about fresh strawberries that transports me back to my childhood instantly. I’ve loved them for as long as I can remember and merging them with my love of cookie cups was just a perfect idea!

I’ve been turning lots of tasty pie recipes into bite sized cookie cups over the past few years. Every time I make one, I think to myself that this is THE ONE! THE BEST. Then I make another and it steals the “best ever” title.

Thomas still swears that the chocolate pie cookie cup I made is the best so far but I’m pretty sure that these Fresh Strawberry Pie Cookie Cups are pretty close to snagging that title.

Fresh Strawberry Pie Cookie Cups

They remind me of southern spring and summer enings. They bring back memories church potlucks and desserts after a holiday meal at my grandparents house. These Fresh Strawberry Pie Cookie Cups are my childhood memories in dessert form.

I topped these Strawberry pie cookie cups with whipped cream, you should too!

Although, with the whipped cream, they kind of remind me of strawberry shortcake….not that that’s a bad thing haha.

    Oh my goodness, I have never seen a recipe for these cups before. Yum! Can I use Bisquick? I’d really like to make these tomorrow and that’s the only flour I have right now. Thanks.

      Hi Pamela! I’ve never used Bisquick to make cookie dough. Bisquick is kinda of like self rising flour with some things added to it like salt and baking powder so that it’s an all in one mix, so it’s not going to act the same as regular four. You could probably use it, but you’d need to change up the recipe and since I haven’t made cookie dough with Bisquick before I’m not sure exactly how you’d need to change it up without experimenting with it myself.

      There are several cookie recipes on bettycrocker.com using Bisquick. I just typed in Bisquick cookie recipes and it several sites came up.

        Good idea, Charlotte! One of those cookie recipes with this filling would probably work perfectly!
