  <br><span class="recipe-schema-ingredients"><h3>Ingredients:</h3></span>

  <ul>

      <li><span itemprop="ingredients">2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour</span></li>

   <li><span itemprop="ingredients">1/2 teaspoon baking powder</span></li>

   <li><span itemprop="ingredients">1/4 teaspoon salt</span></li>

   <li><span itemprop="ingredients">1 cup unsalted butter, softened</span></li>

   <li><span itemprop="ingredients">3/4 cup granulated sugar</span></li>

   <li><span itemprop="ingredients">1 large egg</span></li>

   <li><span itemprop="ingredients">1 teaspoon vanilla extract</span></li>

   <li><span itemprop="ingredients">Yellow and black food coloring</span></li>

   <li><span itemprop="ingredients">1/4 cup sliced almonds</span></li>

   <li><span itemprop="ingredients">1/4 cup powdered sugar</span></li>

  </ul>

  <h3>Instructions:</h3>

     <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl with a whisk</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">Melt the butter and mix it with the sugar in another bowl until the mixture is light and fluffy</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix them in well</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients one at a time until the dough comes together</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">Split the dough in half</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">Add black food coloring to one half and yellow food coloring to the other half</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">Knead the dough until the colors are spread out evenly</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">To make the bodies of the bees, roll the yellow dough into little balls</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">Put them on a baking sheet that has parchment paper on it</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">Make little balls out of the black dough to make the bees' heads</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">Put them on the bodies</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">To make the bee's wings, gently press sliced almonds onto the yellow bodies</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">For the hive shapes, roll out some yellow dough into an oval shape that is a little flatter than a circle</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">Then, use a knife to make a honeycomb pattern on top of the oval</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">Also, put the hive shapes on the baking sheet</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">Put the shaped dough in the fridge for about 30 minutes to cool it down</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">Set the oven to 350F 175C and heat it up</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">For 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to turn golden, bake the cookies</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">For a few minutes, let the cookies cool on the baking sheet</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">Then, move them to a wire rack to cool completely</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">After the cookies have cooled, use powdered sugar to make the hive-shaped cookies look like honey</span></p>

   <p><span itemprop="recipeInstructions">Now it's time to enjoy your cute bumble bee and hive cookies</span></p>
