Show your love with these heart-shaped "I Love You" Cookies, a sweet treat for Valentine's Day.
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup butter or margarine, softened
  • 1 package (3 ounces) cream cheese, softened
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 3 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • About 2 dozen wooden sticks with rounded ends
  • 1 tub (16 oz) Betty Crocker™ Rich & Creamy Vanilla Frosting, if desired
  • Assorted candies and Betty Crocker™ candy sprinkles or colored sugar, if desired
Instructions:
  • In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat together butter, cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, and egg until light and fluffy. Mix in flour and salt until fully incorporated. Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, but no more than 24 hours.
  • Preheat your oven to 375°F. Roll out a quarter of the dough at a time to a 1/4-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface using a floured rolling pin. (Keep the remaining dough chilled until you're ready to roll it.) Use a heart-shaped cookie cutter that's 3 to 3 1/2 inches in size to cut out the dough. Arrange the cookies about 1 inch apart on an ungreased baking sheet and gently insert a 1-inch wooden stick into the bottom of each cookie.
  • Bake for 7 to 10 minutes until lightly browned. Transfer to a wire rack. Allow to cool completely for about 30 minutes. Finish by spreading frosting and decorating with candies.
