Best 3 Sweetheart Cup Cookies For Valentines Day Recipes

SWEETHEART VALENTINE THUMBPRINT COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside. If you do not have parchment paper, spray the baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
• In a medium size mixing bowl, mix together the butter with the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until thoroughly combined. This will take about 1 minute with an electric mixer or2-3 by hand.
• Then, add in the flour and mix again until the dough forms.
• Next, roll the dough into level-size tablespoon balls of dough.
• Place them on the prepared baking sheet, arrange the dough balls 1 inch apart to give them room to spread out.
• After that, use the end of the handle on a rubber spatula to press two deep indentations into the center of each cookie dough ball in the form of a V. As it bakes it will puff up and look more like a heart.
• Stick the cookies in the oven and bake for 17-20 minutes or until the bottoms are golden in color.
• Let cool for 5 minutes on the sheet before transferring to a wire rack and letting cool completely.
• Before the cookies have cooled completely, use the handle or the rubber spatula to re-define the hearts by pressing the handle into the indents gently.
• In a small bowl, start by heating your chosen jam in the microwave for 30 seconds.
• Then, spoon the jam into the heart-shaped indents. This is roughly ½ teaspoon of jam per cookie.
• Let the jam set and cool completely before serving the cookies. Enjoy!

SWEETHEART CUP COOKIES FOR VALENTINE'S DAY

Steps:

• Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray 36 mini muffin cups with cooking spray or line with paper liners.
• Roll 1 rounded teaspoon of dough into a ball and press into the bottom and up the sides of a mini muffin cup to form a shell. Repeat with remaining dough to make 36 shells.
• Bake in the preheated oven until lightly golden, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, beat peanut butter, confectioners' sugar, and butter together in a bowl using an electric mixer until creamy. Pour filling into a pastry bag or a resealable plastic bag with a corner snipped off.
• Remove from the oven and press the end of a wooden spoon into each cookie cup to reshape. Cool 2 minutes in the pan, then carefully transfer to a rack to cool completely.
