Coconut Heart Cookies

It's not too early to bake Valentine's Day cookies right?  I wanted to share some fun and easy cookie ideas you could make for your loved ones. I was planning to make love heart cookies but didn't check first that I had the correct heart cookie cutters in my collection.  I did have a few heart cookie cutters but of course they were not the correct size ones I needed.  But not to worry, I created these cute cookies instead. These cute Coconut Heart Cookies are easy and fun to make for Valentine's Day.  They have a hint of coconut, a sweet jam centre, drizzled with chocolate and added sprinkles of course.

Festive Shortbread Cookies

I'm so excited about Christmas baking that I kind'a started a bit early this year. I know it's November but I thought I'd start sharing some recipes to inspire you to bake for Christmas. One of the things I always bake at Christmas time are shortbread cookies.  These festive shortbread cookies are so easy and fun to make.  But best of all they taste delicious as the cookies melt-in-your mouth. I love to drizzle melted chocolate and add sprinkles onto them.  There are so many different shaped cookie cutters you can use.  As usual, I love to make mini treats so I used a small star cutter.  This recipe makes lots of little cookies.  Or you can make quite a few large cookies instead.
