Simple Floral Heart Cookie

Don't have a ton of time, but still want to make a homemade gift for a loved one? Well, here is a simple cookie that you can make in no time. There are only a few steps and you can make this in time for Valentine's Day!

Materials needed:

~ Baked sugar cookies - You can get a similar cookie cutter HERE.

~ Royal Icing

~ Pink gel food coloring - You can get a pack HERE.

~ Scribe

~ Piping bags

~ Pink Fondant

~ Silicone flower mold - You can get it HERE.

The royal icing consistencies should be as follows:

*White royal icing - medium consistency

*Pink royal icing - medium to stiff consistency

For all of the icing, I simply cute the desired hole size at the tip of the piping bag. If you get any bubbles while piping, simply use your scribe or toothpick and smooth it out.

Step 1

Make sure your baked cookie is completely cooled before adding any royal icing.

Step 2

Flood the cookie with the white icing. Make sure to leave space around the perimeter of the cookie like below in the image.

Step 3

Around the perimeter, add a simple lace-like design.

Step 4

Dust the silicone mold with flour. Place the pink fondant into the flower mold and press firmly. Pop each flower out and secure each piece with a little royal icing on the bottom. The silicone molds and fondant are time savers! If you want to pipe your own flowers, you can do that too.

Now you have a simple but beautiful cookie to gift!
