Are you ready for Valentine’s Day? Do you celebrate? We really don’t, but I love an excuse to buy themed baking supplies. The holiday aisle at Target gets me every time and I picked up this hot pink frosting and heart sprinkles.
CHOCOLATE FROSTED VALENTINE COOKIES
Julia loved helping with these. We recently introduced her to Playdoh so she’s all about rolling out dough and using cookie cutters.
Tonight, while she was taking a bath, I realized she was reciting “Panda Bear Panda Bear What Do You See?” all by herself. I’m so loving this age (she’ll be 2 next month). I think she gets smarter by the hour and it just blows me away.
TIPS & TRICKS:
To frost these cookies, I used canned frosting, like I mentioned.
To make it easily spreadable, I put a couple tablespoons onto a paper plate and microwaved it for about 10 seconds – just enough to get runny. It makes it really easy to dip the cookies into then you just let the excess drip off. It makes for a smooth, even coating with a shiny finish.
TOOLS FOUND ON AMAZON TO HELP YOU:
- Heart shaped cookie cutters (here’s the ones I have)
- Valentine sprinkles
- Black gel icing
