Categories     dessert

Time 1h

Yield 24 to 32 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/3 cup granulated sugar
8 ounces sour cream
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 large egg
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 drop lemon oil or 1 teaspoon lemon extract
3 1/3 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
3 tablespoons baking powder
5 cups powdered sugar
1/3 to 3/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons lemon zest or 2 teaspoons lemon extract
1/4 to 1/2 cup rainbow nonpareil sprinkles

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Fit 2 more baking sheets with a wire rack.
  • For the dough: In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the granulated sugar, sour cream and vegetable oil on medium-low speed. Add the egg, vanilla extract and lemon oil and mix until combined. On low speed, add in the flour and baking powder and mix until a dough forms.
  • Remove the dough from the bowl onto a clean work surface dusted with flour. Knead until the dough forms a smooth ball. Using a bench scraper, cut the dough in quarters. Working with one quarter at a time, roll the dough into a snake about 1-inch thick. Using the bench scraper, cut the snake into 8 even pieces. Take one of the smaller pieces and roll into a snake again so that it is approximately 6 inches long. Knot the dough and place the prepared baking sheets with parchment. Repeat this process with the rest of the dough.
  • Bake the love knots for 10 to 12 minutes; they should turn a light golden brown on the bottom and double in size. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
  • For the glaze: While the cookies are cooling, put the powdered sugar into a large bowl. Add the milk a little at a time until you reach the proper consistency; you want the icing to coat a spoon. Once the proper consistency, add the vanilla extract and lemon zest.
  • After the cookies have cooled completely, dip the entire cookie into the glaze. Hold the cookie over a bowl to allow excess glaze to run off and then place on the wire rack. Allow to dry for 30 seconds before sprinkling the tops with nonpareil sprinkles. Store the dried cookies in an airtight container to maintain freshness.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

Yield Makes 3 1/2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for parchment
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Sanding sugar, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Sift flour, salt, and baking powder together into a bowl. With an electric mixer, beat butter and granulated sugar on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Mix in egg and vanilla. Reduce speed to low; gradually mix in flour mixture. Wrap dough in plastic wrap. Chill 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Let dough stand at room temperature 10 minutes. Generously flour a large sheet of parchment. Roll out dough on parchment to a scant 1/4-inch thickness, running an offset spatula under dough and dusting with flour as necessary to prevent sticking. Transfer dough on parchment to freezer, and chill 15 minutes.
  • Using a 2- to 3-inch X- or O-shaped cookie cutter, quickly cut out shapes from dough. (If dough begins to soften, return to freezer for 3 to 5 minutes.) Reroll scraps once and cut out more shapes.
  • Transfer shapes to parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. Freeze 15 minutes. Sprinkle shapes with sanding sugar. Bake until edges are just golden, 15 to 18 minutes. Let cool completely on sheets on wire racks.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will greatly impact the taste of your cookies. Opt for a high-quality semisweet or bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60%.
  • Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the dough, resulting in a lighter, more tender cookie.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help to prevent the cookies from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just set and the centers are still slightly soft: Overbaking will result in dry, crumbly cookies.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before serving: This will allow the flavors to develop fully.

Conclusion:

Love and Kisses Cookies are a classic chocolate cookie that is perfect for any occasion. With their rich chocolate flavor, chewy texture, and adorable kiss-shaped tops, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're in the mood for a sweet treat, give these Love and Kisses Cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
