This is a recipe for cookie tins that can be mass-produced for Valentine's Day.
I used heart and rabbit molds based on the theme of easy and cute cookie tins.
I heard that polvoron is a Spanish sweet to celebrate Christmas, and there is a spell that says if you can say polvoron three times before it melts in your mouth, your wish will come true.
I thought it was a perfect spell for Valentine's Day and decided to add it to the recipe.

▷Ingredients
■Polvoron (for 10 hearts and 7 circles)
70 g cake flour
30 g ground almond
50 g unsalted butter
40 g powdered sugar

6 g powdered sugar
1g strawberry powder

▷How to make
1. Fry the cake flour in a frying pan over medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly golden brown. Spread on a cookie sheet and set aside to cool.
2. Mix unsalted butter and powdered sugar until smooth, then add cooled cake flour and ground almond. The mixture will not come together easily at the end, so use your hands to bring it together.
3. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and roll out to 10 mm thick. Chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
4. Cut the dough into 4cm x 3.5cm heart shapes and roll out the rest of the dough, dividing it into 10g pieces. To ensure even cooking, roll out the dough to a thickness of 10 mm.
5. Bake in a preheated oven at 150℃ for 18 to 22 minutes.
6. Mix powdered sugar with strawberry powder and sprinkle over the baked polvoron.

■Cut-out cookies (about 10 for Miffy and 20 for Love Letter)
100 g unsalted butter
60 g powdered sugar
Pinch of salt

135 g cake flour
30 g ground almond

Strawberry chocolate
Sweet chocolate

▷How to make
1. Add the powdered sugar and salt to the unsalted butter and mix well.
2. Add egg yolks and mix until incorporated.
(If you mix too much after adding the eggs, the mixture will be too hard, so it is best not to overmix.)
3. Add sifted cake flour and ground almond and mix until powdery.
4. Roll out 2/3 of the cookie dough to a thickness of 8 mm, roll out 1/3 to a thickness of 5 mm, and refrigerate for 1 hour.
5. Cut 8 mm thick cookie dough into 3 cm x 4.5 cm rabbit molds; bake in preheated oven at 170°C for 12 to 15 minutes.
Cut 5mm thick dough with 3cm x 2.5cm letter mold.
Bake in a preheated oven at 170°C for 12 to 15 minutes.
6. When the cookies have cooled, decorate with strawberry chocolate and sweet chocolate.

○Recipe Tips○
The most difficult part of this recipe is the tea cookies.
Because I was too sweet to grind the tea leaves... lol.
The tea leaves clogged up the bag and tore the bag, so it took me about an hour to squeeze them out.
But the squeeze cookies are easy to put back in the bag if you don't like the shape after you squeeze them out. It's easy (?) in that respect.
This year, it is especially cold and hard to squeeze out the cookies, so I recommend using cloth squeeze bags instead of plastic ones.
