Directions

1
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper & set aside until ready to use. 
2
In a large mixing bowl using an electric hand mixer cream the butter and sugar until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the vanilla and lychee. Beat until incorporated. 
3
Sift in the flour & salt. Beat until dough comes together. Add water if the dough appears too crumbly. Transfer to a lightly floured surface & shape into a disk. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for a minimum of 1 hour. 
4
On a lightly floured surface roll out the dough to ¼ inch thick. Using a heart shaped cookie cutter cut dough into 24 cookies. 
5
Transfer to prepared baking sheets & bake at 350°F for 10 minutes. Let cool to room temperature before decorating.
6
To finish, dip half of each cookie in melted chocolate. Transfer back to the cookie sheet & finish with a sprinkle of dried rose petals. Refrigerate for 5 minutes to allow the chocolate to fully set.
