So for today's post, I used red yeast powder to make these crispy cookies, as it gives the natural red colour represents sweet love for Valentine's day as well good luck for Chinese New Year. It is very easy to make these cookies. All that is required is to mix and knead all the ingredients by hand and it's all done within a couple of minutes. Use your favourite cookie cutter shapes and have fun baking for your loved ones.
