Valentine Heart Cut-Out Sugar Cookies Recipe

Ingredients:
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter
2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla

3 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
2 tsp cream of tartar
1/2 tsp salt

Cream together the top 5 ingredients and set aside. In a seperate bowl, combine the 4 dry ingredients. Add the dry to the cream mixture and stir until well blended. 

Place dough in the refrigerator for 10 - 15 minutes. The chilling helps the dough stay together a bit better. Flour coat a clean surface. Roll out half the dough until 1/4 to 1/8 inch thick. Cut your shapes out. Re-roll and cut out your cookies until all the dough is used.

Bake the cookies at 350 degrees for 8 - 10 minutes. If you have thicker cookies, bake for 12 minutes. Cool completely and decorate away!!
