VALENTINE CINNAMON SHORTBREAD COOKIES
Surprise your Sweetie or your kids with these fun cookies on Valentine's Day!! I am a lover of the tiny red candy cinnamon hearts. You can decorate with those or get the pink and red M&Ms celebrated for this day. You can purchase a Wilton 6-pc heart cookie cutter set which are multiple sizes. I used that set for making these cookies. I did not roll the dough, but placed an amount of dough into each heart. The M&Ms will not melt while baking, but the cinnamon hearts will. After baking for 5 to 7 minutes I removed them from the oven and placed the hearts on at that time to prevent melting. You may want to have the tiny candy hearts on the entire time and have a little more "spread" of the flavor. Enjoy the Fun!

Steps:
- Mix room softened butter with sugar and vanilla.
- Combine cinnamon with salt and flour. Add to butter mixture and mix until it forms a dough.
- On waxed paper press a small amount of dough into a heart shaped cookie cutter. If using M&Ms decorate after placing cookie dough on an ungreased cookie sheet.
- If using red cinnamon heart candies, place undecorated cookies on an ungreased cookie sheet in a 325 degree oven. Remove after 5-7 minutes and decorate with red cinnamon heart candies. Place back in oven and finish baking. This allows candies to not get completely melted.
- TOTAL time for baking cookies is approximately 15 minutes. Do NOT let cookies get brown edges.
- Yield depends on size of cookie used. 36 is an approximate amount.

CINNAMON SHORTBREAD COOKIES
My ex M-I-L had this recipe scribbled on the flyleaf of one of her family cookbooks and no one knew what it was, one year we made it and it was her mom's infamous shortbread cookies. I thought I'd lost the recipe when I divorced, but I found it online (with food processor instructions no less!) and wanted to share. I like bigger cookies so I don't get as many out of the recipe, some friends can get 5 dozen out of theirs. Prep time includes chilling, and it can vary.

SHORTBREAD PLUM TART WITH HONEY AND CINNAMON
Based on a classic gâteau Breton, this buttery tart is filled with a fresh plum compote flavored with honey, rosemary and cinnamon instead of the usual puréed prunes. You can make the compote and dough a few days ahead, but this tart is best served within 24 hours of baking. After that, the center starts to turn mushy from the moisture released by the fruit. Serve it on its own, or with a dollop of whipped cream.

Steps:
- In a food processor, process 1 cup sugar until powdery and fine, about 1 minute. Add flour, cinnamon and salt; pulse to combine. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles bread crumbs. Add egg and 4 egg yolks, and pulse until mixture comes together. Divide dough in half, form into disks, and wrap in plastic wrap. Chill at least 2 hours or until firm.
- In a small saucepan, combine plums, 1 to 3 tablespoons sugar (this depends on how sweet your plums are), cinnamon, honey and rosemary sprig, if using. Simmer until jammy and thick, 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Transfer plum mixture to a bowl to cool, and remove cinnamon stick and rosemary sprig. Taste and stir in more sugar if mixture seems very tart.
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8-inch springform pan and place it on a rimmed baking sheet to catch any butter leaks.
- Between two sheets of parchment paper or plastic wrap, roll one of the dough halves into an 8-inch circle. Transfer dough to prepared cake pan, pressing into edges. Spoon plum compote on top of dough, leaving 3/4-inch border around edge.
- Roll second piece of dough into an 8-inch circle, transfer to pan, press around outside edge to stick the pieces together and seal in fruit.
- In a small bowl, combine remaining egg yolk with 1 teaspoon water and beat lightly. Brush over top of cake, then use a fork to score a crisscross pattern into the dough. Bake until golden brown, 1 hour (cover with foil if cake is browning too quickly). Cool in pan for 15 minutes, then run a butter knife around the inside edge of the pan and unmold from ring. Cool completely and serve.

CINNAMON ALMOND SHORTBREAD PEAR
On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me a partridge in a pear tree.... These shortbread pears remind me of the 12 days of Christmas song. I was given something similar to these for Christmas and the whole family really enjoyed them so I wanted to tried to make them myself and here is what I came up with.. These are prefect for gifts not only Christmas time. It's also my families tradition to serve shortbread biscuits to visitors who go to visit a new born baby, these would be ideal.

CINNAMON SHORTBREAD COOKIES
I have a brother that loves these cinnamon imperials...I tried a cookie recipe last year with them in it, that was ok, but I wanted to create a better one. So yesterday I created this shortbread type one... I think it turned out really good and it sure makes the house smell good when you're baking them! For fun, I decorated...

Steps:
- 1. In a food processor, add cinnamon imperials, process until fine powder, like flour. (It will be loud!) There may be a few pieces that refuse to dwindle down, thats okay, using a fine mesh strainer, sift the cinnamon powder to remove the chunks, I left the tiny pieces in, but removed the big ones. Sift your flour into the cinnamon powder and set aside.
- 2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar, add in vanilla mix well. Add in flour mixture and mix until well incorporated. I will be crumbly. With your hands work dough into a ball. Divide in half and shape each half into a log about 9" long. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours.
- 3. Preheat oven to 350. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper. Or lightly spray pans. Remove one dough log from refrigerator. Slice 1/4" thick and place on prepared cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for 11-13 minutes, until edges JUST barely start turning golden. While first pan is baking, repeat with last dough log. Remove from oven and let cool on cookie sheets 2 minutes, then remove to racks to cool completely. This cookie will firm/crisp up while cooling.
- 4. If desired you can frost the tops with a powdered sugar buttercream, 1/2 c butter, 2 c powdered sugar, 1/2 tsp vanilla and enough milk (approx 3T) added to make of spreading consistency. OR you can dip half in melted white chocolate too!!! Or drizzle with the white chocolate. That would be wonderful!!! :o)
