Equipment
- Heart Shaped Cookie Cutter
Ingredients
- 1 Basic Sugar Cookie Recipe
- 2 Cups White Frosting Store Bought or Homemade
- Pink Gel Food Coloring
Instructions
- Follow steps 1 through 7 on the sugar cookie recipe card.
- After chilling, use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut out the cookies. Place them on a lined baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch between each one.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a medium bowl, mix half of the white frosting with a few drops of pink food coloring until you get the color you want.
- Add the pink frosting to a piping bag fitted with a star tip.
- Add the remaining white frosting to another piping bag fitted with a star tip.
- Pipe the frosting over the cookie until it's completely covered. Continue this step until all cookies are decorated. Enjoy!
Notes
- Make sure the cookie dough is very cold. This will help prevent the cookies from spreading while baking.
- Ensure your cookies are completely cooled before adding any frosting or icing.
- Store in an air-tight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
