Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming
down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or
shifting shadow. (James 1:17)

Pastel Marbled Hearts (Low Cal)

1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup LAND O LAKES® Butter, softened
1 large egg
2 T. orange juice
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 t. baking powder
Pink paste food color
Purple paste food color
Green paste food color
Edible glitter or large grain sugar, if desired


Combine sugar and butter in large mixer bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy (2 to 3 minutes). Add egg and orange juice; continue beating until well mixed (1 to 2 minutes). Reduce speed to low; add flour and baking powder. Beat until well mixed (1 to 2 minutes). Divide dough into fourths. Knead pink food color into one portion. Knead purple food color into second portion. Knead green food color into third portion. Flatten each fourth into disk shape. Wrap in plastic food wrap. Refrigerate until firm (2 hours or overnight). Heat oven to 375°F. Using half of each dough disk (keeping remaining dough refrigerated), alternately place spoonfuls of dough onto lightly floured surface to create marbled effect. Roll out dough to 1/8” thickness. Cut with 3” heart-shaped cookie cutter. Place cookies 1 inch apart onto ungreased cookie sheets. Sprinkle with edible glitter, if desired. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Cool completely. Repeat with remaining dough. Makes 3˝ dozen cookies.
