i heart you cookies for my sweetheart
(4 ratings)
In keeping with valentines and red, white and pink for our sammie challenge I wanted to make my sweetie something he would remember. I used my "Butter Cutout Cookies" recipe for my heart shaped cookies, added a raspberry filling, made a sweetheart sammie and glazed. The raspberry filling took these cookies over the top! You can use the store bought refrigerator cookies,just roll them out and cut in desired shapes. Or have your bakery make your cut out cookie without the glaze. http://www.justapinch.com/recipes/dessert/cookies/butter-cut-out-cookies-dee-dees.html
