I know the sugar cookie post is from a while ago, but it looks like the perfect cookie recipe… http://iammommy.typepad.com/my_weblog/2009/12/dont-let-this-happen-to-you.html
I lost the one I used to use for cut out cookies when I moved from Ireland and I just can’t remember the quantities.
I have a couple questions… Firstly, if I don’t have the almond extract will it be gross without? Should I add a little extra vanilla?
Also, does the dough freeze well? I’m thinking about making it in advance but I have made some doughs before that just don’t like to be frozen.
I’m thinking about making hubbie some cookies for valentines day – I know he’d appreciate it since I haven’t done much baking since I’ve been pregnant!
What a beautiful feast for the eyes! Here is a fun treat I make for Valentine’s Day: http://comeandpeek.blogspot.com/2009/02/chocolate-peanut-butter-hearts.html
Wow! You are a real talented baker! I love all your art work!^^
Thanks for the ideas. I think I’ll try the strawberry filled cupcakes, they’re about my speed. Valentine’s day will be great and you can have the credit.
Wow! I love your job. Amazing!
*Your Valentine Treats are so Unique,

cheerful are shared in these delicious

Every one of these looks better than the next. Can I have one of everything please? Thanks 🙂 hehe
This has got to be the best assortment of Valentine’s Day treats I have ever seen! I nearly fainted when I saw the petit fours! Wish I could make all of these by Valentine’s Day!
LOVE these! Just featured your brilliant baked goods today:-)
Hi Amanda, I made the Valentine’s Cake (over a 4 day period!) ~ a few flops, but finally got it all glued together. Not much of a baker, but this was a great project. My Mom in South Africa quilts, ~ perhaps I was inspired in a similar way here 🙂 … I am on a strict diet (Bootcamp), so decided to give this cake to 2 of my dear friends who became engaged over Chirstmas. My musician friend and my hairdresser ~ they LOVE the cake! I have not yet seen the inside heart, but they promised they would send me a pic. I will send you a photo show of the making of the cake, put to my musicians own composition “Love is Free, This Christmas”. I will email you a copy of the photo show.
Thanks for the great recipe ~ it is currently my FaceBook page (the cake).
