Valentine Cookies

Its time to make some Valentine cookies I use this recipe for all my cookie cut outs today I used only 1/2 recipe it made over 3 doz.

Scotch Shortbread

1 lb butter

1 cup brown sugar

5 cups flour

Measure all ingredients in large bowl work with hands until butter is all blended into the sugar and flour.This takes at least 5 min.of steady working. Turn out on lightly floured board.Knead and press until you can force it to hold together from the warmth of your palms. Roll to1\2 inch thick cut into shapes. Bake at 350 for 12 to 15 min. till lightly browned( I roll mine between 2 pieces of parchment paper saves a lot of mess )
