They are easy and really yummy. Hopefully you like some of these Valentine’s day cookie recipes. Let me knwo which one you tried!

Ingredients

• 2 & 1/2 c. all-purpose, unbleached flour
• 1/2 c. dutch-process cocoa (natural is OK, too)
• 1 tsp instant espresso powder
• 1/2 tsp. coarse salt
• 1 cup unsalted butter
• one cup sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp. vanilla

Instructions

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Whisk together the flour,cocoa, espresso powder and salt; set aside.
3. Cream together the butter and sugar until light an fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla until well combined.
4. In 3 additions, add the flour mixture at low speed. Scrape down sides and bottom of bowl as needed.
5. Roll the dough on a lightly floured and cocoa-ed surface. (I mixed the 2 of these, then spread on my rolling surface, on my rolling pin, and used it to dip my cookie cutters.)
6. Cut the cookies with a square cutter, then divide into smaller squares, if necessary, using a bench scraper.
7. Freeze cut cookies five minutes.
8. Bake 8 minutes. Let cool completely.
9. With white royal icing and a #4 (or so) plain tip, pipe the x’s and o’s.
10. With red icing and a #3 or #4 tip, pipe hearts on some of the cookies.
11. Let the icing dry (overnight is fine).
12. Mix equal parts meringue powder and water. Brush onto piped designs with a small paintbrush and sprinkle on sanding sugar. Shake off the excess.
