love letter cookies 💌🫶✨

Love letter cookies are a charming way to express your affection, especially around Valentine's Day. With their delicate appearance and delightful flavor, they make for an unforgettable gift. To prepare these tasty treats, you'll only need premade pie crust, jam of your choice—raspberry is a great option—powdered sugar, and an egg for the wash. First, roll out the pie crust and cut it into shapes that resonate with the theme of love, like hearts or envelopes. Spread a thin layer of jam on one piece and cover it with another, sealing the edges to avoid leaks during baking. If you like, create small slits on top to allow some of the jam to peek through, adding an elegant touch. Once assembled, brush the top with the egg wash for that golden-brown finish and bake at 350°F for about 10 minutes. Once they cool, dust with powdered sugar for a sweet final touch. These cookies not only taste great but also look beautiful on a plate. Perfect for sharing or as a centerpiece at a Valentine’s gathering, love letter cookies are sure to impress your loved ones!
