Valentine's Day Dipped Wafers

A quick and simple treat to make with the kids for Valentine's Day, these cookies are guaranteed to be a hit and also look fabulous!

Ingredients

• Wafer Cookies in Strawberry or Vanilla as many as you'd like to make
• Candy Melts or chocolate melts in pink red and/or white
• Sprinkles and nonpareils in pinks reds and whites

Instructions

1. Follow instructions on package for melting Candy Melts using either microwave or double-boiler. There is no exact amount as it is based on how many cookies you plan to dip. About 1/4 bag of candy melts should dip about a dozen wafers.
2. Meanwhile, line a cookie sheet (or 2 or 3) with parchment or wax paper.
3. Once melted, dip half of a wafer into melts, lay on cookie sheet and decorate with sprinkles of your choice! Continue doing this with each wafer.
4. Place cookie sheets in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to set candy melts. Once they are set they can be stored in an airtight container. They do not need to be refrigerated once set.
