Ingrédients
For the Cookies
- 1 batch Heart-shaped cookie dough (homemade or store-bought)
- 1 cup Assorted colored sprinkles For decoration
- 1 cup Whipped cream For decoration
For the Chocolate-Dipped Fruit
- 1 cup Chocolate For dipping strawberries
- 1 cup Fresh strawberries or raspberries Or any fruit of your choice
Instructions
Preparation
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) while you prepare the dough.
Baking the Cookies
- If using homemade dough, roll it out on a flour-dusted surface until it's about half an inch thick. If store-bought, follow the package instructions.
- Using a heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut out the dough into heart shapes. Place the cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden on the edges. Keep an eye on them to avoid over-baking.
Chocolate Dipping
- While the cookies are baking, melt 1 cup of chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring in between.
- Once melted, dip fresh strawberries or raspberries halfway into the chocolate and allow excess chocolate to drip off before placing on a parchment-lined plate.
Final Touches
- Once cookies are baked, let them cool on a wire rack.
- Once cooled, add whipped cream and sprinkle assorted colored sprinkles on top.
- Arrange the decorated cookies and chocolate-dipped fruits on a lovely platter.
Serving
- Serve and enjoy the desserts with your loved ones.
Notes
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature. Chocolate-dipped fruit should be refrigerated separately.
