Steps:

• In a large bowl, cream the margarine and sugar together. Add the eggs one at a time, mix well. Stir in the milk and vanilla. Sift together the flour, salt and baking powder; stir into the creamed mixture until everything is well blended. Drop cookie dough by heaping spoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheet.
• Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven. The tops of the cookies should spring back to the touch like a cake. Cool on wire racks before frosting.

BLACK & PINK COOKIES

Steps:

• For the cookies: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
• In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder and salt and set aside. In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, mix together the butter, granulated sugar and lemon zest until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, then add the vanilla. Add the yogurt and dry ingredients in 2 or 3 alternating additions and mix until just combined. Scoop out 1/4-cup blobs of the batter onto the lined baking sheets (using an ice cream scoop helps achieve uniform size and round cookies!), 2 to 3 inches apart. (You may need to bake in batches if they don't all fit on the two baking sheets.) Bake until the tops are set and the bottoms are just beginning to brown; begin checking for doneness at 14 minutes. Let cool on the pans for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• For the strawberry glaze: In a medium bowl, mix together the powdered sugar, strawberry powder, corn syrup, salt and 3 tablespoons yogurt until smooth and combined. If it's too thick to spread, add additional yogurt a little bit at a time until it's spreadable.
• For the chocolate glaze: In a medium bowl, mix together the powdered sugar, cocoa powder, corn syrup, salt and 3 tablespoons yogurt until smooth and combined. If it's too thick to spread, add additional yogurt a little bit at a time until it's spreadable.
• Spread half of each cookie on the flat side with a thick layer of strawberry glaze and let set, about 30 minutes. Spread the other half of each cookie with a thick layer of chocolate glaze and let set, about 30 minutes.

PINK LEMONADE COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Line cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper.
• In large bowl, mix all cookie ingredients with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Onto cookie sheet, drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls.
• Bake 9 to 11 minutes or just until edges begin to brown. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 20 minutes.
• In medium bowl, mix 1/4 cup butter, the powdered sugar and 3 tablespoons lemonade concentrate with electric mixer on low speed until smooth. Add remaining 1 tablespoon concentrate, 1 teaspoon at a time, if needed for desired consistency. Frost cookies.

PINK HEART SANDWICH COOKIES

Steps:

• Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Beat together butter and sugar with a mixer on medium speed until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in egg and vanilla. Reduce speed to low, and gradually add flour mixture, beating until just incorporated. Remove from the mixer and and knead until a dough forms.
• Divide dough into 3 or 4 pieces, depending on how many shades of pink you would like the cookies to be. Working with 1 piece of dough at a time, add food coloring, 1 drop at a time, mixing and kneading to combine, until desired shade is reached; the more food coloring you add, the darker the color will be. Flatten each piece of colored dough into a disk, and wrap each in plastic wrap. Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour and up to overnight. Bring to room temperature, about 10 minutes, before rolling.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees with racks in top and lower thirds. Roll out each disk of dough between 2 sheets of lightly floured parchment to just under 1/4 inch thick, adding more flour as needed to keep dough from sticking. Cut out 1-, 1 1/2-, and 2-inch heart shapes, making sure you have even numbers in each color and size for a total of thirty-six 1-inch, thirty-six 1 1/2-inch, and thirty 2-inch cookies, rerolling scraps once. Place cookies 1 inch apart on parchment-lined baking sheets, and freeze until very firm, about 15 minutes.
• Bake until barely golden brown around edges, about 8 minutes for 1-inch cookies, 10 minutes for 1 1/2-inch cookies, and 12 minutes for 2-inch cookies, rotating halfway through. Let cookies cool completely on baking sheets set on wire racks. Spread or pipe (using a pastry bag and a small plain tip) filling onto bottom side of half the cookies, and sandwich with remaining cookies, pressing gently. Cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week.

PINK COOKIES - MERINGUE JELLO COOKIES

Steps:

• Carefully seperate egg whites from yolks - ANY yolk left in the egg whites and you will not be able to make the meringue!
• In a clean dry bowl whip egg whites, white vinegar and salt until stiff (but not dry!).
• Add in sugar and jello powder (Traditionally we use Red Jello - such as raspberry or Cherry -- ).
• Fold in chocolate chips
• On buttered cookie sheet, drop spoonfuls of meringue - I do smaller, bite sized cookies.
• Bake on a buttered cookie sheet for 30 minutes at 250* then turn off the oven and let them sit there over night.
• Do not peek or open the oven! They will turn out soft and chewy!
• Preparation time is to make the meringue - Cooking time is total time to make!
