In a small jelly roll pan you can press the treats thin enough to cut with the heart shaped cutters.

With a piping bag (or plastic sandwich bag) you can frost these with pretty designs in a cream cheese frosting that makes them even sweeter.

Red Velvet Cheesecake & 17 and Baking - StumbleUpon

August makes me think of peach skin against my lips, of yellowing grass, and inevitably of the coming school year. I remember exactly where I was last August – the kitchen. There were only a few weeks before I moved to Boston for college, and I went into a baking frenzy. In the mornings, I preheated the oven before I brushed my teeth, and I photographed enough desserts to keep the blog alive across the country.

This summer, though, I haven’t spent much time baking. A year ago, I remember standing with my dad in the kitchen. I wasn’t sure what he meant. He shrugged a little and said, “You never know. “Never going to happen.” Now I can’t get it out of my mind. I didn’t spend as much time with my parents this summer as I expected, or as I would have liked. This semester I’m going to Europe, where baking opportunities will be even scarcer than they were in Boston.
