Instead of conversation hearts, how about conversation cookies this Valentine’s Day?
Here’s what you’ll need:
- sugar cookies
- almond bark
- sprinkles
Here’s my favorite sugar cookie recipe:
MOM’S SUGAR COOKIES
2 c. butter
2 c. sugar
6 eggs
1 t. vanilla
6 c flour
2 T. baking powder
1 ½ t. salt
Refrigerate dough for 2 hours. Bake 8-9 minutes at 375 degrees.
For conversation cookies, use mini alphabet cookie cutters and cut out your favorite conversation heart phrases.
After the cookies are baked and completely cooled, prepare almond bark by microwaving in a small glass bowl according to the instructions on the back of the package.
Lay out a large piece of tin foil. Toss several cookies into the bowl of almond bark and retrieve with a fork, letting the excess almond bark drip down through the tines. Scrape the bottom of the fork on the side of the bowl to remove the last few drips and lay on the tin foil to dry. (Watch my video about how to make sugar cookies wrapped in almond bark).
Wrap each message in a separate goody bag and give to your sweet hearts to unscramble and decipher a lover’s message!
