This made a LOT of cookies, which is great...I used orange gelatin mix and added a tsp. of orange extract to kick it up a little...Next time I think I am going to use pineapple jello and coconut extract for a pina colada type cookie...these are disappearing as I type!

Its a neat idea to use jello, but even with sugar sprinkled on top its not too sweet or flavorful. I left them in for 6 minutes. You need to wait until they cool completely because they're a little soft inside at first. I made them in the shape of flowers with my cookie press, and they make pretty pink cookies.

Only two stars because as easy as these cookies are to make they lack a lot of flavour. I used a whole box of strawberry gelatin, plus 1/4 tsp strawberry extract and then rolled them in more strawberry gelatin before baking and they still lacked the intense flavour I was looking for. I don't own a fancy cookie press so I refrigerated my dough, rolled in balls (tossed in gelatin) and flattened with a plate. Don't cook for more than 7 minutes or else they get to brown and hard.

These are the best! Lime, raspberry, and orange work the best for flavor and deepest color.

These were simple to make and pretty decent overall. I used lemon jello and would have used lemon extract if I had had any on hand. I could taste the jello but it was mild flavored. Decent enough that I would use this recipe again. These were perfect for the cookie press. These were tricky to bake though, it took 6 min on 1 cookie sheet, 7 min on the other and both were wilton brand.

These are great cookies. I used this recipe with my cookie press for the first time and I was amazed at how easy it was. The only thing I would change is the amount of gelatin. I followed the recipe and did 3 oz but next time I will probably double that since the flavor wasn't very noticeable of course it could also vary depending of the type of gelatin you use.

I was looking for a new recipe for my cookie press. This was perfect! I used a 3oz. Jello brand cherry and the color was great. I also used margarine, and reduced heat to 375 degrees for 8-9 minutes. They freeze really well. I froze 3 dozen and had another 2 dozen or so gobbled up as they came out of the oven. Thank you for the recipe. I can't wait to make other colors for other holidays.

Great recipe with great flavor! I will use it again next year. One caution is that you really have to watch the time very carefully or your cookies will burn in the blink of an eye and be on the crispy side Unfortunately my new cookie press didn't have what it took to go the distance and it went in the trash can :(

As others stated this recipe did spread more then I like for Spritz, but they were the perfect red for Valentines Day hearts and quite flavorful (cherry). We enjoyed them, especially the kids at my son's preschool. So they weren't so crispy I lowered the temp to 350 and the cooking time to 5 1/2 minutes on nonstick pans.

Very sweet and fruity; therefore, little kids love them! This recipe worked well in my cookie press (Williams Sonoma). So far, we have made strawberry flowers, and lime Christmas trees...both were very pretty.

I made lime trees and cherry stars for a cookie exchange and they turned out wonderfully. My first batch turned out dark like the picture so i reduced the temp to 350 and the baking time to 5 minutes. This made over 10 dozen cookies with my Wilton press! Will definitely get rave reviews--guaranteed!

These are awesome cookies, though i didn't get enough flavouring from the cherry jello. So i added in Almond extract instead of the vanilla. Received rave reviews at a cookie exchange, so am making 10 dozen more today for another cookie exchange! THANKS!!

These were yummy, but they didn't have as much fruity flavor as I thought they would. Maybe next time I will add a little bit of extract (such as almond or cherry) to enhance the flavor.

I was looking for a good cookie recipe and remembered I had gelatin powder - this one worked out perfectly! I halfed everything in the recipe except the egg and the gelatin, used strawberry flavour and made 23 cookies. They were fast and easy to make (I didn't put them in the fridge because the texture was already fine for rolling), and when I brought them to a floor meeting in residence, they disappeared in minutes.

My cookie spritz machine is sorely underused and so as I was looking for a recipe, I came across this one and thought, "Strange, but interesting." I used cranberry/raspberry Jello and made little pink stars and this recipe makes a whole lot of cookies. When they cooled, I drizzled them with Sugar Cookie Glaze from this site that I made light green and they looked so cute. These were very popular in my Christmas tins that I handed out and my kids loved them!

This was one of my favorite cookies growing up! My mom made them for the school's cookie walk. She topped hers with a sprinkle of jello instead of sugar. It made them sparkly and added a little zing!
