This tutorial includes a step-by-step look at all FIVE Valentine's Day cookies.
Cookie Yield
For a single batch of dough, you can make about 18-20 of the 5 regular sized cookies (about 4-5 of each), plus many of the Itty Bitty Gingies (they are only an inch big). I should note that I roll my cookies to 1/4" thick using the Dough EZ Rolling Mat System. The thickness of your cookies will impact your yield.
COOKIE RECIPE: For a cookie recipe and rolling and baking video CLICK HERE - this recipe can be doubled in a KitchenAid Mixer.
Prepping the Royal Icing
Check out the icing guide below for tips on making the right colors and an estimate of how much of each color you'll need.
For a single batch of dough, I typically use a single batch of icing. Since I'm using a KitchenAid mixer, I made a double batch of icing and split it in half (reserving half for another project).
