"stained glass" valentine cookies

Ingredients

• 6 cups flour
• 3 teaspoons baking powder
• 2 cups butter
• 2 cups sugar
• 2 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• 1 teaspoon salt
• Jolly Rancher candies

Preparation

• Preheat over to 350 degrees.
• Cream together butter and sugar. Add eggs and vanilla.
• Mix dry ingredients and add to butter mixture. Roll to desired thickness.
• Cut out shapes making a hole for the stained glass effect.
• Unwrap a Jolly Rancher and place in the center of your cookie - Bake for about 8 minutes on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
• Let cool on the pan. This step is important because the candy needs to cool and harden up. And there you have it - Stained Glass Valentine Cookies! We ran out of Jolly Ranchers before we ran out of dough so we made frosted sugar cookies as well.
