Sacred Heart Cookies

The month of June is dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. In addition, the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus is celebrated on the Friday following the Second Sunday after Pentecost, which will be June 19th this year.

A fun way to celebrate at home would be to bake a heart shaped cake or cookies in honor of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. These cookies were served at this week's Summer with the Saints and quickly disappeared. The kids loved them!


All you need:
  • Heart Shaped Sugar Cookies (Here are a couple great recipes from the archives!)
  • White, Red, and Yellow Frosting
  • Chocolate Sprinkles
Directions:

Frost cookies with white frosting. Add heart to center of cookie with the red frosting. Arrange chocolate sprinkles around center of the heart to represent the thorns. Add yellow frosting "flames" coming from the top of the red heart. Enjoy!


Most Sacred Heart of Jesus,
have mercy on us!

  3. I want to know where you get that very red frosting.

    Any red frosting or food coloring that I have tried turns out very pink.
