    List of Ingredients




    Two Hearts Together

    Ingredients

    1 cup butter, softened

    1 cup white sugar

    1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

    1 egg, separated

    1 teaspoon almond extract

    1/2 teaspoon salt

    2 cups all-purpose flour

    1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk

    1/2 cup heavy whipping cream

    1/4 cup pink decorator sugar


    Recipe



    Directions

    1 In mixer bowl, beat butter, granulated sugar, cream cheese, egg yolk, 1/2 teaspoon almond extract, vanilla and salt until well blended. Add flour, mix well. Chill 2 hours.


    2 On floured surface, knead dough to form smooth ball. Divide into thirds. On floured surface, roll out each portion to 1/8 inch thickness. Cut out heart shapes with cookie cutter.


    3 Place 1 inch apart on ungreased baking sheets. Brush with slightly beaten egg white and sprinkle with colored sugar. Bake in preheated 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) oven for 7 to 10 minutes. Cool.


    4 In saucepan, combine condensed milk, whipping cream and remaining 1/2 teaspoon almond extract. Over medium high heat, cook and stir until mixture comes to a boil. Reduce heat to medium; cook and stir until thickened, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool. Sandwich "two hearts together" with caramel mixture. Store tightly covered.


    Makes 2 - 3 dozen
