Ingredients
- 3 sticks of butter - softened
- 1 cup of sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla
- 3 1/2 cups of flour - sifted
- 1/4 teaspoon of salt
- 1 package of White Chocolate Almond Bark
- 1 bottle of Red food coloring gel - See link
- 1 tube of Neon pink food coloring gel - See link
- Assorted Valentines Sprinkles - we used red pink and white
Instructions
- In the mixing bowl of an electric mixer, blend the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the vanilla and blend.
- In a separate bowl sift the flour and salt together, and add it to the mixing bowl with the butter mixture a little at a time until all the flour is added, and blended well.
- Add the Red food coloring gel, starting with about 5 drops, and blend until the dough is all red.
- If you want the dough a darker color, add another drop and blend, until the desired color is achieved.
- Roll the dough into 1 1/2 inch balls, and place them on a Parchment lined cookie sheet about an inch apart.
- Use your thumb to press a 'thumbprint' into the center of the cookies, making an indentation.
- Bake the cookies at 350 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the cookies start to turn golden brown.
- Place on a wire rack to cook completely.
- When cookies are cool, melt 4 squares of the white chocolate almond bark,in the microwave on 15 second intervals, until it's smooth and creamy, stirring between intervals.
- Fill the centers of the cookies with the white chocolate.
- Dip the bottoms of the cookies in the melted white chocolate, and then immediately in the sprinkles.
- Melt the rest of the white chocolate in the microwave on 15 second intervals, and stir between intervals.
- Remove it from the microwave, and add 1 - 2 drops of the Neon pink gel food coloring to the white chocolate, and stir well.
- Place the pink chocolate in a squeeze bottle with a tip, and squeeze heart shapes out on parchment paper to decorate the cookies.
- Drizzle the remaining pink chocolate over the cookies as shown.
- Let the cookies set for at least one hour before moving them or serving them, to allow the chocolate to set.
