Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Get out and measure your ingredients.
  2. Add the flour, baking soda, salt, cream of tartar and baking powder together in a medium sized bowl. Set aside.
  3. Whisk until blended.
  4. Add the sugar, butter and brown sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat together on high speed for 1 minute.
  5. Add in the eggs, vanilla and raspberry extract and beat together for 20 seconds.
  6. Lastly, mix the flour mixture and fruity pebbles in.
  7. Stir until incorporated.
  8. Cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap and place into the fridge to chill for 1 hour. Do not skip the chill time on these cookies as they will spread and burn quickly when baking.
  9. Once the cookie dough has chilled, remove from the fridge and uncover the bowl. Preheat the oven to 350 F. Spray a couple of large baking sheets with baking spray.
  10. Make the topping by whisking the sugar and ground fruity pebbles together in a medium sized bowl.
  11. Whisk until blended.
  12. Use a tablespoon or small cookie scoop and scoop balls of 1 Tbs sized balls of cookie dough. Roll the dough in the topping mixture until fully coated.
  13. Place the cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets leaving about 2” of room between them for spreading. Place the pans into the preheated oven to bake for 12 minutes.
  14. Once baked, remove them from the oven and place them onto a cooling rack to cool completely while you make the glaze.
  15. Pour the milk over the fruity pebbles and let soak for 5 minutes.
  16. Pour just the milk into a medium sized bowl with the powdered sugar, salt and raspberry extract. Whisk well until a glaze has formed.
  17. If the glaze becomes too thin, whisk in 1 Tbs of powdered sugar until the desired consistency is achieved. If the glaze becomes too thick, whisk in 1 teaspoon of milk. In either case, be sure to whisk vigorously after each addition.
  18. If the color of the milk did not make the glaze pink enough, add a dot of pink food coloring.
  19. Use a spoon to drizzle the glaze over the cookies. Let set for a few minutes to allow the glaze to set up.
  20. Place cookies inside box.
  21. Serve.
  22. Enjoy every bite!
