Time 2h30m

Yield 36

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
1 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon red edible glitter
1/4 cup red cinnamon candies
1/3 cup water
3 tablespoons butter, softened
3 cups powdered sugar

Steps:

  • In medium bowl, beat 1/2 cup butter, granulated sugar and egg with electric mixer on medium speed until creamy. Beat in milk and vanilla, scraping bowl frequently, until well mixed. On low speed, beat in flour and baking powder until well mixed, scraping bowl frequently.
  • Shape dough into 2 equal halves; wrap in plastic wrap. Flatten each to 1/2-inch thickness. Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
  • Heat oven to 400°F. On generously floured surface, roll out 1 half of dough 1/8 inch thick. Cut with small (2-inch) heart-shaped cookie cutter. On ungreased cookie sheets, place cookies 1 inch apart. Sprinkle glitter on cookies. Bake 5 to 8 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Repeat with remaining half of dough, except do not sprinkle with glitter. Remove from cookie sheets to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in 2-quart saucepan, heat candies and water to boiling over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer uncovered about 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until candies are melted. Remove from heat. Using wire whisk, stir in butter and powdered sugar, 1/3 cup at a time, until smooth.
  • Spread or pipe heaping teaspoon filling in center of flat side of each undecorated cookie. Press decorated cookie over filling; press firmly to secure.

I added some chocolate chips to the dough and they turned out amazing! The chocolate adds a nice richness to the cookies and makes them even more irresistible.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred a less sugary filling. However, they were still very good and I would make them again with a different filling.

I've made these cookies several times now and they always turn out perfect. They're soft and chewy with just the right amount of sweetness. I love that I can make them ahead of time and freeze them for later.
