Looking for a unique summer dessert? Consider my Strawberry Shortcake Bars. They’re made with real strawberries and sugar cookies! Put this all together and it’s like a portable strawberry shortcake!
It’s made with an amazing sugar cookie crust (seriously you’re going to be using this for EVERYTHING!). The Strawberry Shortcake Bars are stuffed with a strawberry whipped cream cheese filling and topped with more sugar cookies!
They’d be perfect for summer picnics, family reunions, ect.

Do you have any recommendations for a store bought sugar cookie? Do you use crispy or soft cookies?
Hi Kari,
Great question. I prefer crunchy for this recipe. I used my store’s brand of packaged sugar cookies (on the shelf not from the bakery). Keebler or something along those lines probably has a version too!
