Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
-
Gradually add the flour and salt to the wet ingredients, mixing until a smooth dough forms.
-
Shape the dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to firm up.
-
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to about 1/4-inch thickness. Then, using your heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut out the cookie shapes and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
-
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let them cool on the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Once the cookies are completely cooled, you can have fun decorating them with colorful sprinkles or icing to add a festive touch.
-
Serve these lovely heart-shaped cookies on a pretty platter or package them in a box tied with a ribbon for a thoughtful gift.
