Heart with Arrow Cookies (Arrows-Wilton Icing Decorations) |
Ingredients
1 cup, 2 sticks Unsalted Butter, softened
1 Large Egg
3 tablespoons Milk
2 teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract
1 tablespoon Lorann Professional Kitchen Red Velvet Bakery Emulsion
½ teaspoon Apple Cider Vinegar

Red Velvet Heart Cookies |
Directions
Sift flour, cocoa powder, buttermilk powder, baking powder, and salt in large bowl and combine with whisk or spatula; put aside.
Cream the butter and sugar together in a bowl of an electric mixer with paddle attachment on low to medium speed. Mix until incorporated, about 1-2 minutes.
Scrape sides of bowl with spatula and mix again for 5-10 seconds more.
Add egg. Scrape down bowl with spatula and mix again for another 10 seconds.

Add vanilla extract, red velvet emulsion, and milk, and mix for 1 minute.
Slowly add flour mixture and mix on low speed for 1-2 minutes.
Add vinegar.
Continue to mix until dough clumps around paddle attachment.
Form dough into a ball, cover with plastic wrap, and cool in fridge for 1-2 hours or overnight.
Red Velvet Cookies |
Heat oven to 350 degrees.
Take 1/4 of the dough, use rolling pin and roll out between 2 pieces of parchment paper to desired thickness and cut out shapes. I used various heart shape cutters.
Mix a little cocoa powder with flour to lightly coat the cutters if needed.
Repeat rolling the dough and cutting shapes until you have used it all.
Place cookie shapes on parchment lined baking sheet and space apart 2 inches.
Put cookies in the freezer for 15 minutes before baking. They hold their shape when you do this.

Let cookies cool in baking sheet for 5 minutes and transfer to wire rack to cool completely, about 1 hour.
Let cookie sheets cool completely before you bake again. I put the cookie sheet in the freezer for 5 minutes. Repeat until you have baked all the cookies.
