Heart shaped sugar cookies

Tesco and Lidl (local supermarkets) had some left over Valentine’s Day baking supplies on offer, I bought a few bits and made some heart shaped sugar cookies.  Artur helped decorate.

You will need

• 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
• 2 Egg(s)
• 2 cup Sugar
• 2 cup Butter
• 6 cup Flour
• Cookie Cutter(s)

Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C

Begin by combining the butter and sugar. Keep mixing until it looks light and fluffy.

Add the eggs and vanilla:
Mix in the eggs and vanilla extract, make sure they’re mixed in really well.

Add dry ingredients:
Mix in the flour, a little at a time. Keep mixing until you have a nice dough.

Chill the dough:
Let the dough chill in the fridge for 1-2 hours.

Cut out cookies:
Roll out the dough to how thick you want it then use your cookie cutter(s).

Bake your cookies:
Bake the cookies at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes or until the edges start to turn golden brown.

Decorate and enjoy! For ours with used pink raspberry flavoured icing – yummy!
