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.

    It was so yummy the only difference was I used coconut cookies and left out the added sugar cause the cookies were sweet enough and only cooked it for 20 minutes instead of 30

    Am I the only one that doesn’t know what, “in small box mix 1/12 sugar cookies” means? And don’t you need to cream the cream cheese before folding it into the cream mixture? I’m 69 and have never heard this. Enlighten me. Lol

      Hi Pamela!
      I’m so sorry for any confusion. It should be small BOWL. I updated the post.
      I did not cream the cream cheese, as mine was already pretty well softened.

      Yes that should be fine, just thaw first.

    Can these be made with cool whip instead of whipping the cream yourself? If so, would you still add sugar to it?

      Hi Jo!

    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!
