Valentines Day Cookies
I’ve been playing around. Here are some cookies I am contemplating using in the near future… think any are keepers? And be honest!
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 c Butter I Use Unsalted
- 2 c Sugar
- 2 whole Eggs
- 2 whole Eggs Yolks
- 4 tsp. Vanilla Extract
- 2 tsp. Almond Extract
- 4 c All-purpose Flour
- 1 tsp. Salt
- 1 tsp. Baking Powder
Instructions
- In a mixer, beat butter and sugar until well combined, about 2 minutes.
- Add in 2 eggs and 2 egg yolks and mix until combined.
- Add in vanilla and almond extract; mix until combined.
- In a separate bowl, sift together flour, salt, and baking powder. Slowly (about a cup at a time) add flour to butter mixture and combine. You can use a mixer or not, just depends on how strong you are.
- Mix ingredients until they are just combined.
- Put dough in some Saran wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour. When you are ready to bake, heat oven to 350 degrees. Roll dough out, cut out cookies, and bake for 6-8 minutes.
Did you make this recipe?
Thank you for making my recipe! You took pictures, right? Well go ahead and post them on Instagram! Be sure to mention me @iambaker and use the hashtag #YouAreBaker.
I’m sorta getting artsy fartsy. Dont know why.
Im working on some Valentines petit fours… hopefully (finally!)
Amazing! I love them all … but I think that the solid red with the little white hearts is my favorite. Of corse I also love the solid red with the fun sqiggles … hmmm? I will just say (again) that I love them all. 🙂
Seriously beautiful! You have some major talent in the frosting department!!!
Oooh Oooh yes!! I love them! Especially the little dots and the “heart flowers” and the…. oh heck I love them all!!!
Fancy schmancy & beautiful!
Could you just ONCE post an ugly cookie??
I love these! I want them.
Hmm… they all look really nice. Guess my fav might be the solid red cookie with little white hearts or the one that looks like “paint spatter”. How long does it take you to frost each cookie? It would take me forever… you post so many stunningly beautiful things… if i were to make the same things it would take me all day. 🙂 I’m gonna have to try out some valentine sugar cookies. Still haven’t made the rainbow cake – my son keeps reminding me about that one. LOL.
Blessings to you,
Kari
Love them all, but if I was to pick one or two it would first be the white with tiny hearts with squiggly lines in first photo on top left,(and in bucket) and my second favorite is the red with the small white hearts off to the side photo below one in bucket 🙂
You are so creative, they are all lovely!
Absolutely beautiful! You’re too cute. 🙂
Geepers, girl! Talent…amazing talent!
My faves? The solid red with little white hearts to the left, and the white with the red and turquoise dots…gorgeous!! (Can I call a cookie gorgeous? Cuz they are!)
