Ingredients

  • 1 sheet of all-butter puff pastry homemade or store bought
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup freeze dried raspberries
  • pinch of kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  2. Add sugar and raspberries to a high powered blender or food processor, blend on high until powdery and pink.
  3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Pour half of the pink sugar onto the parchment. Place thawed puff pastry on top. Use a rolling pin to press pastry into the sugar.
  4. Fold sides into the center. Press on more sugar on the folded pastry. Fold sides in once more, more sugar. Fold like a book.
  5. Use a sharp chefs knife to slice 1/2” cookies. Use your pingers to pinch the bottom of the hearts to create an exaggerated heart shape. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment, 2” apart.

  6. Bake for 5 minutes, use an offset spatula to flip each cookie over, bake for another 4 mins. Allow to cool completely.

Recipe Notes

If these cookies have lost their shape slightly during baking, it's ok! Just use a knife or your fingers to gentle pinch the bottom of the heart, in order to accentuate the shape. Do this before the cookies have cooled completely.
