You Need

1:30
  • 1 stick butter, softened
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 13 teaspoons strawberry jelly

    • How To

    1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
    2. First, beat softened butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer on high. The butter should be smooth and stuck to the inside of the mixing bowl. Using a rubber spatula, scrape the butter from the sides and into the middle of the bowl.
    3. Add in sugar and beat on high until incorporated.
    4. Beat in egg, vanilla extract and almond extract. Scrape the batter from the sides again and into the middle of the bowl.
    5. Finally, add in the flour and salt and mix until just incorporated. It should be a crumbly dough.
    6. Now, scoop out 2 Tbsp of batter, roll into a ball and place on prepared baking sheet. When all the cookies are rolled and on baking sheet make your imprints.
    7. Dip a tsp spoon or pointer finger, whichever you find to work best, into flour and then gently create a circle shape in the dough ball.
    8. Using a small spoon, carefully add 1 Tbsp of strawberry jelly into each heart. Do not press the balls out of shape during either steps.
    9. Place the cookies in the refrigerator to chill for one hour before baking. Do not skip this step.
    10. Once chilled, preheat the oven to 350. Bake cookies for 14-16 minutes.
    11. Check on the cookies, and remove them from the oven when the edges of the bottom of the cookies is just starting to turn golden brown.
    12. Let the cookies cool on the baking pan completely. Once cool, remove the cookies from the pan and enjoy!
