Instructions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Butter and sugar together with a mixer until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Add dandelion petals and beat to incorporate.
Gradually add flour and salt, beating to incorporate fully. Dough will be crumbly at first, but it will start to come together.
Once all the flour is added, beat on low another minute or so. Then knead gently with your hands until the dough comes together.
Roll cookies out and cut out with your favorite cookie cutters.
Bake cookies at 325 for about 20 to 25 minutes, until they begin to brown on the bottoms and are fully cooked on the top.
Remove to a cooling rack and allow them to cool completely. Enjoy!
