Simple Valentine's Rose Cookies
- 120 grams *White flour
- 10 to 15 grams *Cocoa (unsweetened)
- 1 tbsp *Skim milk (if you have)
- 100 grams Butter
- 3 tbsp Milk
- 50 grams Sugar
- Let the butter soften at room temperature.
- Add the sugar and mix well so it turns into a creamy texture.
- Mix until the sugar becomes smooth.
- Once the butter is softened add the milk a little bit at a time and mix.
- You should be aiming for the consistency of mayonnaise.
- If it's too stiff immerse in a hot water bath.
- Sift the * ingredients, and then sift into the bowl.
- Use a rubber spatula and mix in a cutting motion.
- It'll be crumbly at first but eventually it'll become a stiff cream.
- Place in a pastry bag with a 5 mm tip.
- If you put the bag in a large cup it'll be easier to add the dough.
- Make the cookie shape by squeezing from the middle and making a circular motion.
- For the outside try to layer it, like a flower petal.
- Cook in your preheated oven at 170C (338 Fahrenheit) for 15 to 20 minutes.
- Once finished cool and transfer to your serving plate.
- A close-up of the rose.
- So lovely.
- Don't press it, don't get impatient, and let the dough fall into place.
- Heart shapes are also easy.
- This one's a bit bold!
- I tried to make it small, but that was quite the effort.
- When squeezing out do it in a massaging motion.
- It'll be a bit stiff at first, but it'll soften from the warmth of your hand.
