Let's Make Some Snazzy Valentine Cookies

Today I'd like to share some really cool Valentine cookie recipes/ideas. What a special treat these would be for your loved ones.

Colorful Spiral cookies from Sprinkle Bakes

No baking is required for these cuties... just a box of Oreo Cakesters and a heart shaped cutter. This idea is from www.betsywhite.com

These are so pretty... Neapolitan cookies. Recipe by www.justjennrecipes.com

Last, but certainly not least... Cherry chocolate kisses. This recipe comes from www.thecurvycarrot.com

There's still a lot of time before Valentine's Day arrives, perhaps enough time to make all of these. :-)

Thanks for joining us today.
