Thanks — I’m excited to turn this into a warm, friendly article. Before I begin, I need the full recipe details so I can include the ingredients and the directions exactly as you provided.

Could you paste the recipe’s:

  • Exact title (you already gave the title, which is great)
  • Complete ingredient list
  • Complete directions/steps (these must be included verbatim)

If you don’t have the written ingredients and directions handy, I can either:

  1. Create a faithful, original Valentine’s sugar-cookie recipe (I’ll write ingredients and directions for you), or
  2. Wait for you to paste the exact recipe you want converted into the article.
