Valentines Sugar Cookies - Microwave HOW TO

I love food blogs, so I decided I'm going to start my own India version.

These Valentine cookies are soft and delicious and can make your V-day great no matter how far you are from home!



First, be sure to become a member of a really cool church who will send you a package with Trader Joe's sugar cookie mix. (If you are looking for one currently, I might make a recommendation for www.summitnorthwest.org)



Read the directions thoroughly on the package. Make a journey to the nearest village and go to several different shops to acquire each ingredient.

Return home and locate the nearest microwave oven (if a regular baking oven is unavailable of course). In a large bowl (or a cooking vessel if you don't have a large bowl), combine the cookie mix with butter and egg and mix well. If you don't have quite enough butter, like me, you may have to add a drop of oil to get the right consistency. No problem.



Next, borrow a roller from your neighbor and roll out the dough onto a flat surface. Use a knife or some pointy utensil to cut cool heart shapes into the dough. Or whatever other random shapes you would like. I encourage creativity at this point!

Finally, use a microwave safe plate, place the cookies a half inch apart and stick into the microwave. Cook on high power for 1 minute and 30 seconds (depending on your microwave of course) and VOILA! You have delicious quick baked sugar cookies. After cooling, squeeze on some of the packaged frosting that came in the box and spread on the humidified sprinkles that soaked up lots of moisture for a nice touch.



ENJOY!
Happy Valentines Day
