As Valentine’s Day approaches many of us are making reservations for a romanic dinner or a night out with our sweeties. I decided that this year I was going to take care a few fo my single girlfriends. I didn’t want them to feel left out and so we are celebrating Gal-entines Day too! 

Valentine's Day Sugar Cookie // Life Anchored #sp #SendSweetness

Every girl loves chocolates and a nice card (guys, we really do). Only thing that can make that a better suprise is to add a little bit of something handmade to the mix. Delicious sugar cookies are the perfect addition to our Gal-entine’s Day gift. We topped them with tasty M&M’s® Strawberry that are hitting shelves in Wal-mart just in time for Valentine’s Day. A nice big red heart of chocolates from DOVE® and a thoughtful Valentine’s Day card from American Greetings® and we are ready to celebrate. 

Best Sugar Cookie EVER!

After baking for 7-8 minutes the cookies are ready to come out of the oven and moved to a cooling rack. We whipped up a simple frosting and  are ready to decorate. We used the M&M’s® Strawberry to make our heart shared cookies look like larger than life conversation hearts.
