Heart Cookies

SERVES: 12  COOK TIME: 10 minutes  TOTAL TIME: 1 hour

Ingredients

1 can Solo Foods Cherry Cake and Pastry Filling

1 cup sugar

1 cup butter

1 large egg

1 tsp vanilla extract

3 cups flour

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350F. Cream sugar and butter with an electric mixer until fluffy (5 minutes). Mix in egg and vanilla extract. Mix flour, baking powder, and salt together in a separate bowl and add that to butter mixture. Roll dough to your desired thickness and refrigerate for 10 minutes. Cut 24 heart-shaped cookies of the same size from the dough. Use a smaller heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut a second hole in half of the cookies; this will be the window where the jam will show through. Bake cookies in the preheated oven until edges are golden, for about 8 to 10 minutes. Take the cookies out of the oven and let cool. Spread about 1/2 teaspoon of Solo Foods Cherry Cake and Pastry Filling into the centers of the cookies without the heart-cut centers. Sprinkle powdered sugar on the rest of the cookies with the heart-cut centers, and mount onto the cookies with jam.
