This post is a day late and a dollar short … that’s me these days. I can’t seem to get anything done in advance! Who am I kidding? I never have … probably never will, especially with an attitude like this. Oh well …
Most importantly though, I did manage to get these cookies made in time for Georgia’s valentines day party at school. That’s what counts right?
They were quick easy and fun (what kid doesn’t like breaking out the sprinkles?). I used a heart-shaped cookie cutter and made these a valentines cookie, but you could use pretty much any shape and decorate these for any occasion. Egg for EASTER? Hmmm … or you could use a Christmas tree shape like I did for my post at LifeMadeDelicious!
I cheated and used the pre-made chocolate chip cookie dough from Pilsbury.
Now this dough does not roll out nicely straight out of the package, so … put it in a bowl add 1/4 to 1/3 cup of flour and mix.
Sprinkle a clean surface with flour and roll out dough. Cut into desired shape, but on a parchment lined cookie sheet and bake as per package instructions.
Remove the cookies from the oven. Allow to cool completely. I put mine outside for 5 minutes (it’s Canada folks!).
Now melt some chocolate melts in the microwave. I use the Wilton brand from Michaels.
Dip the cookies in the chocolate (partially), add sprinkles, place on a sheet of parchment to harden.
Easy, peasy!
