Here’s proof that I really can cook after all…
These little cuties are basically a sugar cookie dough colored pink–and cut into tiny hearts. I poked some of them with a sucker stick for decoration before baking, then sprinkled powdered sugar and granulated sugar on them when they cooled. This makes a ridiculously small batch–so at least double it if you want more than a handful.
Tiny Cookie Valentines
Ingredients
4 Tbsp softened butter
1/4 cup powdered sugar
8 drops red food coloring
2-1/2 tsp milk
1/4 tsp vanilla
3/4 cup flour
Mix butter and sugar together. Add food coloring, vanilla and milk. Stir in flour. Roll out onto floured surface. Cut out tiny heart shapes. Poke tiny holes with a toothpick if you want. Bake at 350 degrees for 6 minutes. Leave on pan until cool. Sprinkle with sugar.
These make wonderful little additions to a Valentine treat bag or surprise for the kids. They’re just so cute!

Those were SO good. I think I ate half the batch myself. We’ll have to make some more if you were planning on giving them to people.
Oh, and just so you know… I have that “Charlie says!” jingle stuck in my head. All credit goes to you on that one 🙂
I think she ate half of them too! HAAAAAAAAAAH!!! jUUUst kidding! I know there just weren’t enough to appease me and my love of cookies! 😉 There was only one or two left on the plate and I kept making myself walk away… NO MORE!!! 😉
Oh NO!!! Not Charlie!!! Quick someone else tell me something, I can’t get that in my head again!!!
“Madam… HOOOOOW do you do!” That commercial wins!
Ok… back to the cookies. AWESOME! They are super cute and I think everyone should make some… and then give them to me! HAH!
