Valentine’s Day Cookie Hack

in Holidays, Valentine's Day on 02/11/18

Time-Saving Mom -Hack

Valentine’s Day is just a few days away! Can you believe it?!  I always have the best intentions when it comes the holidays. But I usually end up volunteering for too many school activities, and the vision of holiday cheer ends up being a lot more stressful than I had intended. That being said, I still somehow manage to stick to all my commitments, and pull off my vision, well…most of it anyway!! I’ve gotten pretty good at “fake it ’till you make it,” and I actually find it fun to figure out how to fake it!!  I could play it off like I’m Wonder Woman, and pretend like a lot of blood, sweat and tears went into making something look or taste the way it does.  But the truth is, I love sharing these little hacks with you. Who doesn’t like to make life a little easier?!  And if a time-saving hack will do that for you, then bring on the fake-outs!!

Valentine’s Day Cookie Mom Hack

I came up with this fun little hack when I realized I had zero time to bake chocolate chip cookies!

Cookie Cut outs

 

 

 

 

Here’s What You’ll Need

  1. Store bought chocolate cookies (the soft ones found in the deli section of most grocery stores – the kind they make in the store
  2. Candy Melts (any color you’d like – I used pink for these)
  3. Sprinkles of your choice
  4. A small heart-shaped cookie cutter

*Warning – some cookies will completely fall apart…most will not just make sure your cookie cutter is small enough, and that the cookies are fresh.

*We saved the excess pieces for ice cream toppings!

Here’s What You’ll Do

  1. Place cookies on cutting board, and gently push heart-shaped cookie cutter through the cookie.
  2. Repeat with other cookies until you have your desired amount of heart-shaped cookies.
  3. Melt Candy Melts in the microwave following directions for melting on the back of the package.
  4. Once Candy Melts are melted, dip half of a heart cookie in and place on cookie sheet.  Before the Candy Melt hardens on the heart-shaped cookie, shake the sprinkles on top.
  5. Repeat until all your hearts have been dipped in Candy Melts and are decorated with sprinkles.
  6. Let sit for about an hour before serving.

ENJOY!

Do you have any fun Valentine’s Day plans this year?  I’d love to hear about them!
