These are the best Valentine's Day cookies ever!

These cookies have been a success here for years. They are the tastiest cookies ever, you will not find a better recipe. Moreover, they are also very easy to make. The only downside is that the dough is at least as tasty as the cookies. Therefore, assume that half disappears into nothing...

These hearts are of the short bread type; firm but also brittle and crumbly. The base can of course be used for other occasions, but on Valentine's Day we turn it into sweet hearts. You can find the recipe and the (very extensive) how-to here on this very sweet baking blog called Sugary Winzy . Below our variant with love for you.

This is what our cookies usually look like.

Ingredients

Quantity: many hearts
Preparation time: 45 minutes (including baking)

330 grams of unsalted butter
100 grams of granulated sugar
85 grams of powdered sugar
½ teaspoon of salt
375 grams of flour
a few drops of red food coloring (optional)

Method of preparation

Preheat the oven to 150℃
put the butter in a large mixing bowl and make it smooth
add the granulated sugar and mix well
add the icing sugar and salt and mix until one whole
then add the flour and mix until fully incorporated
optional: add a few drops of food coloring. Mix the color with the dough until well mixed
if you want to cut out the cookies with (heart) shapes, wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it cool in the fridge for about 15 minutes
then divide the dough into two or three portions. Roll out per portion on a floured work surface and make the cookies with a cookie cutter
bake the cookies on a baking tray covered with baking paper for about 15 minutes (keep an eye on it in the meantime)
remove them from the oven and sprinkle lightly with some granulated sugar while they are still very warm
let them cool down and pack them in a bag or box, make something beautiful out of it ❤️

And your sweet homemade Valentine's Day presents are ready!
