Recipe from Sheryll Meldrum
Valentine's Day is coming up and these are the perfect cookies to send to your valentines. One year Maryn and I made these and gave one to a boy in her church class and when she gave him the cookie he spun around with a smile on his face. It was cute! I love these cookies and they taste really good with cream cheese frosting on top. The other thing I like about this recipe is you don't have to refrigerate the dough. If you have trouble with the cookie cutters sticking have a little bowl of flour handy to dip the cutter in before you cut out the cookies. The secret ingredient that makes these cookies so flavorful is nutmeg.
Baking time 6 minutes at 425°
