Steps:
- Add Icing sugar and increase the speed of your electric mixer. Beat it until the sugar grains are super fine by scarping the bowl occasionally.

- Slowly add flour in the mixer bowl, beat it until it gets combined well and the mixture is fluffy. Gather the flour towards the centre with a rubber spatula or a wooden spoon and beat it once again.
- Now reduce the mixer speed of your electric mixer to low and add the rest of the ingredients and blend again slowly until it is mixed well.
- Now divide the dough into two equal portions. Lay a plastic wrap on your counter. Take one part and put it between two plastic wraps / sheets or wax paper. Roll the dough out with a rolling pin to about ΒΌ inch thick.

- Now place the heart shaped cookies on the top of the round shaped cookies.
- Take jam in a bowl and add one tablespoons water. Mix it well with a spoon, so that it would be little more pliable before dolloping on the cookies.
- Take a piping bag and fill it with the jam. Cut out the edge of the piping bag slightly.
- Fill each heart shaped space with jam starting at the edges of the hearts and then towards the centre. Don't fill the hearts with the jam too much.
- Sprinkle powdered sugar on the top of all cookies.
