Tips

  • Put the eggs in a bowl of water for 5 minutes to get them to room temperature.
  • Don't include the white part of the lemon when zesting.
  • Chill the cookie dough for better flavor and texture.
  • Soften cream cheese in the microwave for five seconds if needed.
  • Smash strawberries into the cream cheese, releasing juices and making the chunks smaller.
  • Do not use Cool Whip. Make whipped cream with heavy cream instead.
  • Don't overbake.
