Valentine’S Grenadine Cookies

1. 1

   Dice the butter and toss into the large bowl of a stand mixer. Add the rest of the ingredients for the dough. Mix until well combined. Shape dough into a ball, wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

2. 2

   Meanwhile heat the oven to 350 F (175 C).

3. 3

   Sift some flour onto a working surface. Roll out the dough to 1/5 inch thickness using a rolling pin. Cut out heart shapes using various heart-shaped cookie cutters. Pick up scraps, re-roll and cut as many additional hearts as you can.

4. 4

   Put the cookies onto a parchment paper lined baking tray. Bake for about 12 minutes. When cookies are ready remove them from the oven, and let them cool completely on a wire rack.

5. 5

   Meanwhile, for the glaze, combine the powdered sugar with grenadine, using only as much grenadine as needed to reach a spreading consistency. Spoon the glaze gently onto the cooled cookies.
