Ingredients
-
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups all-purpose flour
red cinnamon candies (hearts)
M&M's plain chocolate candy
Preparation
-
Mix room softened butter with sugar and vanilla.
Combine cinnamon with salt and flour. Add to butter mixture and mix until it forms a dough.
On waxed paper press a small amount of dough into a heart shaped cookie cutter. If using M&Ms decorate after placing cookie dough on an ungreased cookie sheet.
If using red cinnamon heart candies, place undecorated cookies on an ungreased cookie sheet in a 325 degree oven. Remove after 5-7 minutes and decorate with red cinnamon heart candies. Place back in oven and finish baking. This allows candies to not get completely melted.
TOTAL time for baking cookies is approximately 15 minutes. Do NOT let cookies get brown edges.
Yield depends on size of cookie used. 36 is an approximate amount.
