Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
-
In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, beating until well combined.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until the dough comes together.
-
Divide the dough into two equal portions. Leave one portion plain and mix a few drops of red food coloring into the other portion to create a vibrant red dough.
-
Wrap each portion of dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Roll out the plain dough on a floured surface to about 1/4-inch thickness. Use the heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut out cookies and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
-
Repeat the process with the red dough.
-
Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
-
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Once the cookies are completely cooled, you can decorate them with icing, sprinkles, or leave them plain for a simple touch of sweetness.
