We had the girls for a few days this week, and since we won't have them for Valentine's Day, we decided to make some early Valentine's Day cookies while Daddy was at work!
Chocolate Cookies:
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup butter, softened
1 egg yolk
1 tsp almond extract
1 1/2 cups flour
1/4 cup cocoa
Preheat oven to 375 degrees
Mix wet ingredients, add dry
Roll out dough and then use cookie cutters
Bake for 7-9 minutes
{decorate}
For these, we just rolled them into balls and then formed them into presents
Check out these plates I got at Target a few years ago!
ENJOY!
If your kitchen does not look like this, you did something wrong ;)
For the frosting, I didn't have an exact recipe. Just threw together:
1 stick of butter, softened
1 tsp vanilla
milk
powdered sugar
