  • Combine flour and sugar in a medium bowl. Cut in butter with a pastry blender until mixture resembles fine crumbs and starts to cling. Form the mixture into a ball and knead until smooth.
  • Preheat an air fryer to 350 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Roll dough to 1/4-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 1/2-inch-wide "fries" about 3- to 4-inch long. Sprinkle with additional sugar.
  • Arrange fries in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Let cool in the basket until firm enough to transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with remaining dough.
  • To make strawberry "ketchup," press jam through a fine mesh sieve using the back of a spoon. Stir in ground chipotle. Whip the lemon curd to make it a dippable consistency for the "mustard."
  • Serve sugar cookie fries with the strawberry ketchup and lemon curd mustard.
