From Valerie's Kitchen - Rolled Almond Cookies

  This past week I had the pleasure of spending a day at home with my 3 year old. We completed puzzles, worked on crafts and played with Legos. He took a nap, the dogs ran circles round the yard enjoying a warm February day, and I got lost in food, again!  The item that consumed the most oven hours was the pork rib roast; a dish I winged with some inspiration from a recipe for pork roast I found in  Jan Karon's Mitford Cookbook . (Super yummy ... maybe if I get a free moment tomorrow I will post the recipe. No photos, though, it didn't last!) The item that brought the most smiles to my families faces and assembled in a cinch was the scrumptious little heart cookies that Bodie and I made. Below you'll find their recipe, found in the Cookie and Biscuit Bible which I received a couple years back as a gift. Next time you're wanting to make cookie cutter cookies, try these, and share the joy! Rolled Almond Cookies Makes 24 Ingredients: ½ cup butter, softened ¼ cup
