Cinnamon hearts

This is a very easy but absolutely tasty tea time snack. Usually rolls are made with the same dough and filling. But for easy sake, I usually mix it together and bake it in cup cake moulds. The taste would be same as that of the rolls but the procedure is much easier.

Ingredients

Dough

2 cups flour
2 tablespoons sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons butter
3⁄4 cup milk

Filling

4 tablespoons butter
1 cup brown sugar or 1 cup white sugar
3 teaspoons cinnamon

Method

For the filling, in a small bowl combine softened butter, brown sugar and cinnamon to form a crumbly mixture.
In a large bowl mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Cut in softened butter (sometimes your hands are the best tools).
Stir in milk to form a soft dough. Now add the filling to this dough and knead well.The outcome would be a rough kind of uneven mixture. Take a ball out of it and set it firmly on a heart shaped cup cake mould and bake it for 20 minutes at 400 degree. Enjoy it for tea or breakfast.
