Welcome back to the Confetti Sunshine blog! I love pretty packaging, especially when it is useful! So I have been trying to come up with a bunch of different ways to easily package valentines for either you or your kids to pass out.
I love this valentine idea because it is easy, cheap, and very versatile. You could easily used store bought cookies, or little treats - wrap them up and you are good to go.
But, to make the little sugar cookie sandwiches I made you will need -
Sugar cookie dough
Frosting
1" wide heart cookie cutter
Heart circle stickers (download at bottom of post)
The cookies were easy and pretty self explanatory. For each cookie I cut out 2 cookies out of the Round Fluted Cutter. In 1 of those cookies I cut out the heart shape. Bake your cookies. Once the cookies are cooked and cooled, take the back side of the plain cookie and slather a whole bunch of frosting on it (double what you would a regular cookie) then gently place and press the heart punched cookie on top.
I cut down the 12"x12" sheets of tissue paper into four 6"x6" squares, printed the heart circles out on sticker paper (regular paper and a glue stick would work just fine). I then wrapped and stickered my cookies into each their own little package.
Seriously easy and fun! My daughter even enjoyed helping me with a few cookies before she decided her cookie cutters were a lot more interesting than mine. But I hope you have fun with this little valentine tutorial, and I would love to see what you have done with it.
Thanks for reading! Stop by tomorrow for another Valentine Day treat idea and freebie!







I absolutely love this idea! My only issue is that I can't find a 1" wide heart shaped cookie cutter. Is it possible to post a link to the one you used please? Can't wait to make some purchases in your shop and make a Vday breakfast and picnic!
ReplyDeleteHi Nicolle,
DeleteThanks for the comment. I am sure there are others wondering the same thing. I got my mini heart cookie cutter a long time ago as a set with about 6 other heart sizes. So I couldn't find the exact one, but I did find some that might work:
Heart Small - Minature
Linzer Valentine Cookie Cutter
