These Valentine's Day cookies are way better than a bouquet of flowers—and tastier too!
Ingredients
- 3/4 c. pecans
- 1 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
- Pinch ground cloves
- Pinch ground allspice
- 1/4 tsp. kosher salt
- 1/2 c. (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1/2 c. granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 12-oz. cherry jam
- Confectioners' sugar, for dusting
Instructions
- In a food processor, pulse the pecans and 2 tablespoons flour until the mixture resembles fine crumbs. Add the cinnamon, cloves, allspice, salt and the remaining flour and pulse to combine.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the egg. Add pecan-flour mixture; mix to combine.
- Divided the dough in half. Roll each half between 2 sheets of wax or parchment paper to 1/8-inch thick, then freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
- Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Working with 1 sheet of dough at a time, use a 2-inch-round fluted cutter to cut out cookies; transfer to the prepared baking sheets. Reroll, chill and cut the scraps.
- With 1 sheet of cookies, use small 1/2-to 1-inch letter and heart cookie cutters to stamp out shapes. Bake until the edges are beginning to brown, 12 to 16 minutes. Let cool completely on the baking sheets.
- Pass the jam through a wide-mesh strainer; discard any large cherry pieces. Spoon jam onto the whole cookies (about 1 teaspoon jam per cookie); dust the stamped-out cookies with confectioners' sugar. Top jam cookies with stamped-out cookies.
