I Heart February

I always get excited for February to roll around for two reasons: romance and sweets. I'm a hopeless romantic when it comes to random love notes, spontaneous getaways, heart shaped sugary treats and little surprises. I recently tried making these conversation cookies, but ended up making an easier version that I thought was prettier anyways—take that Martha. But I have to say, her dough and icing recipe was perfection. I mixed two different tones of pink with this icing color set from Sur La Table, which was my favorite part. I love how shockingly pink they turned out and the subtle color variation.

Those heart cookies are adorable! I'm looking forward to making origami hearts with my daughter for her preschool Valentine's Day party. They make their own Valentine's boxes at school and pass out cards to each other. So fun!

Heart cookies have been on my list to do. But I just spent hours perfecting a heart shape cake, so the cookies may not happen this year!
Yours look so sweet!
