Cookie Dough Lovers

Found a new recipe I knew my sweetheart would enjoy this Valentine's Day,  frozen chocolate chip cookie dough.  Dipped and decorated, these treats look scrumptious too!




Here's how to dress them up for your sweetie ~

  • Mix recipe as directed.  
  • Loosely portion out the dough onto wax paper using a small scoop which made 40 for me.  
  • Pop into freezer for about 10-15 minutes. 
  • Remove from freezer and shape well, placing back on wax paper.  For the hearts, use a small heart shape cookie cutter, molding inside the cutter rather than cutting the dough.  
  • Place the shapes back into freezer for at least an hour then transfer to refrigerator.  
  • Melt chocolate chips or chocolate candy melts according to directions.  
  • Dip the shapes individually, working in small batches while the other shapes remain refrigerated.  
  • Sprinkle with candies before coating hardens or drizzle with melted candy coating later.
  • Allow coating and decorations to harden.
  • Store in airtight container in freezer.  
Enjoy! and Happy Valentine's Day!
