Make your favorite sugar cookie recipe, and chill the dough at least 3 hours.
Roll it out, sprinkle with flour and place a crocheted doily over the top and roll. Gently lift the doily out, and cut. Chill thoroughly again, I put the tray outside as it is below freezing, and then gently lift the cookies off to place on your baking sheet. (You can google doily cookies for many versions.)
Some chocolate goodies perhaps?
The doilies were made by my friend’s mom, Mary. She passed a few years ago in her 90’s, and a true sweetheart.5 Sweet hearts for my dil and son’s 5 SWEETHEARTS, my gkids.
Chocolate cake dipped in melted chocolate.
I didn’t forget the Mister, Blueberry abelskivers…They are filled with blueberry filling.
Fresh Blueberry Hemade muffins, no typo, HE made them! 0)
Last night I made Southern Fried Chicken, Mashed Potatoes and Asparagus.
SFC is a once in a blue moon treat here, and a little shredded cheddar on top of the mashed potatoes in place of adding butter is also a treat. (My friend Gail sent me the place mats and napkins a few years ago, and she made the napkin holders.) She just sent me another treat which I will share with you soon!
Hope you all have a pleasant ♥ Day, treat yourself!
Don’t forget the 6th Annual St. Patrick’s Day Blog Crawl on Mar. 12th. All are welcome, just share something to celebrate the day!
Thanks for stopping by!

Do you have a basement room I could move into? I'd do my part in helping you finish off these goodies. I could wash dishes for my keep...
ReplyDeleteEverything looks great K! I haven't had fried chicken in 100 years... Think I might treat myself soon! Happy Valentine's Day-enjoy:@)
ReplyDeleteI love those doily cookies. I'm not the world's best cook, but I love to make cookies. I would definitely want to try to make those because they're so pretty. Actually, everything just looks fun and pretty in a heart shape. Even SFC and mashed potatoes look special.
ReplyDeleteAnd how nice to see you here!!
Hope you are having a good day in spite of the snow and ice. Our temps are like a blooming YoYo. All this looks so good -- you are a true artist with food.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Phyllis about your banner it's very eye catchy. About an hour ago I was reorganizing my linens an came across some doilies I'd forgotten about. Perfect timing, love the cookies!
ReplyDeleteYou dream up some of the most amazing stuff!!! I have never even hear of a....what's that called?...an abelskiver!!! Really creative! I think my sister crochets doilies. I'll ask her to make some of these just so that I can proudly declare that I have actually not only HEARD of the word, but know what it is and have eaten some!!! :-)
ReplyDeleteHappy Valentine's Day, darlin'!!!
Those cookies are adorable. I'm going to try this. Certainly makes a pretty presentation.
ReplyDeleteHappy Valentine's Day!
Wish I had your cookies right now! Hope the snow vanishes soon!
ReplyDeleteThe cookies look just wonderful!!! Can almost taste them!!! Have a grand weekend! Cathy

I am so in awe of your cookies..I'm wondering if you can use a paper doily?
ReplyDeleteXO,
Jane
I think the paper would rip due to the butter in the cookies. If you try it let us know!
DeleteI didn't get to do too much in the way of Valentines here this year so I love looking at your decorations :-) I'm going to have to try the cookie idea.
ReplyDeleteYou even baked up a storm:)
ReplyDeleteI tried those doily cookies..I didn't press hard enough.. mine did not turn out pretty like yours:)
Mike must appreciate the attention so much:)
No calories in this post. LOL! Love all of your treats. Everything looks yummy!
ReplyDeleteGreat to have you at Seasonal Sundays.

Beautiful setting and your new cookies look great. I could take a bite right off the page. I'm already thinking about your March blog crawl.
