Ingredients
3cupsall-purpose flour
2teaspoonbaking powder
1cupgranulated sugar
2sticksbutter, room temperature and unsalted
1largeegg
1teaspoonpure vanilla extract
Food Coloring: Pink and Red
1/2cupSprinkles
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix the flour and baking powder. Then in another bowl, cream the butter and sugar, and mix for about 2 minutes, until fluffy, then slowly add in the egg, and vanilla extract, and mix until smooth.
Pour the flour mixture into the butter mixture, and stir until well combined. Separate the dough into three portions, add the dough to a bowl, add red in one and pink into another.
Roll out the red and pink dough to about 1/2 inch thick. Use a heart cookie cutter to cut out the hearts from the pink and red dough.
After you have finished cutting all of your hearts out of the red and pink dough, stack them onto a piece of saran wrap, and place them into the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
Then roll out the uncolored dough into a large log to wrap the hearts in the uncolored dough. Wrap the dough log around the hearts, pressing firmly.
Place some sprinkles into a small dish, and cover the outside dough with sprinkles. Place the dough into the refrigerator, for about 2 to 3 hours, to firm up.
Then after the dough is chilled, slice the cookie dough into about 1/2 inch pieces. Set onto parchment paper, and then in the air fryer basket, set the temperature to 320 degrees F, air fryer setting for 5-6 minutes. They will harden as they cool down.
