My boys and I decided to bake some Valentine cookies today.
I found this recipe in the bag with my cookie cutters.
It was titled “The Best Sugar Cookies in the World”. I was thinking that with a title like that, these had to be good!
I’m not sure who gave me this cookie recipe, but here it is….
We used a flower and a heart cookie cutter. The tulips are probably more suited to Easter or spring, but hey, flowers go with V-day too, right?
We covered the cookies with sugar sprinkles and then baked them….
Of course, my youngest son wanted to add all 6 colors plus some extra multicolored sprinkles to his……
After the cookies cooled, we iced some of them with cream cheese frosting.
I used a new recipe that I found here.
Having not tasted every other sugar cookie recipe out there, I can’t say for sure whether these are really the “Best Sugar Cookies in the World” 🙂 , but they were pretty good!
And the little guy’s extra-special, multi-colored cookie didn’t last too long once it came out of the oven!
We’ll be taking a few cookies to my grandmother and one of my uncles tomorrow.
I hope you all have a lovely Valentine’s Day and get to spend some time with someone you love.
XOXO,
So cute!! It’s so great to get the kids involved.
Great idea!
