But I used my hands again! Its crude, its far from perfect, but its still a heart! Heart-Shaped Shortbread Cookies for your Valentine Makes a dozen cookies What I Used: Flour – 1 cup Unsalted butter – 1/2 cup and a little more Powdered sugar – 1/2 cup (measure after powdering) Salt – one pinch Vanilla extract – 1/2 tsp How I Made Them:
- Mix the flour and salt well and keep aside.
- Cream the butter well and mix in the sugar. Cream further until it has dissolved in the butter.
- Add the vanilla and mix well.
- Gently fold in the flour and make into a soft dough. Refrigerate cling-wrapped, for an hour.
- Gently roll the dough and cut into desired shape. I make small balls and made the heart shape with my hands 🙂
- Bake in a 180C pre-heated oven for 10-12 minutes. Share with your valentine while still warm and get ready for the compliments 🙂
