I’ve been playing around. Here are some cookies I am contemplating using in the near future… think any are keepers? And be honest!
Valentines Day Cookies
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.

I’m sorta getting artsy fartsy. Dont know why.
Im working on some Valentines petit fours… hopefully (finally!)
Okay you want me to be honest?
They’re too pretty to eat!!! lol ๐ That’s a good thing.
Apparently the red ones with the tiny hearts win! They are so stinking cute, I can hardly stand it. I would so love a tutorial because I wouldn’t have the slightest idea of what frosting or tool to use to make one.
I’m not sure if you sell these, but, you should!
Oh, and my daughter’s 4th birthday is a week away and I’m going to make a go of that rainbow cake. She is so excited!
Apparently I am new here because I see you do sell them and already have the cookie tutorial. Awesome! I am going to have to give it a whirl!

II am so envious of your cookie decorating skills – amazing! All of these look beautiful, but my favourite is the red with white swirls. Stunning!

These are stunning! My absolute favorite is the white one with pink lines and heart (first picture, first row, center), although I would be thrilled with ANY of them! You are definitely very talented.
