Last night I fell asleep thinking about Valentine’s Day themed cookies. This is one of them. I thought I’d posted it here on the blog, but couldn’t find it and decided to re-post it this morning for those of you with Valentine’s Day baking plans.
This is an old recipe from Very Best Baking and I like it a lot. The cookies have more of a butter cookie texture than an actual chocolate chip cookie texture and the dough is easy to work with and makes well defined hearts. In the original recipe, they decorate the cookies with frosting. For some reason, I never did that and the cookies were still very cute. This year I might try using the frosting.

February 8, 2011 at 11:25 amThat looks like an insanely awesome ratio of chocolate chips to cookie :).
Last year I made heart shaped sugar cookies (my brother’s favourite) however it was more a coincidence that it was Valentine’s weekend and the only cookie cutter I owned at the time. Maybe this year I’ll do it intentionally :).
