Title: Valentine Cookie Pop
Ingredients:
– 1 batch of your favorite sugar cookie dough
– Heart-shaped cookie cutter
– Lollipop sticks
– 1 cup of white chocolate chips
– Assorted Valentine’s Day sprinkles
– Red and pink food coloring
– Parchment paper
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven according to your sugar cookie recipe instructions. Roll out the sugar cookie dough on a floured surface until it’s about 1/4 inch thick. Use the heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut out the cookies and carefully transfer them to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
2. Insert a lollipop stick into the bottom of each heart-shaped cookie, making sure it’s secure but not poking through the top.
3. Bake the cookies according to your recipe’s instructions. Once baked, remove them from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack.
4. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth. Divide the melted chocolate into separate bowls and tint them with red and pink food coloring.
5. Dip each cookie pop into the colored chocolate, covering the entire surface. Allow any excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl.
6. Before the chocolate sets, sprinkle your chosen Valentine’s Day sprinkles over the chocolate-coated cookie pops. You can get creative here and mix and match different sprinkles for a fun and festive look.
7. Place the decorated cookie pops back on the parchment paper and let them set at room temperature until the chocolate hardens.
8. Once the chocolate has set, your Valentine Cookie Pops are ready to be enjoyed! Serve them at your Valentine’s Day gathering or wrap them individually in cellophane bags tied with a ribbon for a thoughtful homemade gift.
