How to Make Valentine's Day Cookies

  6. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  7. Roll out each disk on a lightly floured surface and use heart-shaped cookie cutters to create shapes.
  8. Chill the cut-out cookies on baking sheets for an additional 5 minutes.
  9. Bake cookies for 8-10 minutes, or until edges are set and lightly golden.
  10. Cool cookies on baking sheets for 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
