Disney Valentine's Day Cookies from the Princesses, With Love


One of my favorite Valentine's Day treats is the little conversation hearts. I love to read all of the cute sayings on each one. These traditional Valentine's Day treats were the inspiration for these cookies.





We took a little help from the store to make our cookies by buying prepackaged sugar cookie mix. For decorations we bought white and green icing, plus tips,and Disney Princess Glitter Gels.




Naturally, the kids wanted to help. My kids have been in the kitchen with me since they were babies and helping out not long after that. Bella helped make her first cookies at 18 months. She's been my little sous chef ever since. I think it's important to get your kids as involved as possible.








For the frosting, I used a mix of confectioners sugar and milk.  I then used gel food coloring to create the colors we wanted for the cookies.



Then it was time to frost.




Once the frosting was dry, it was time to decorate. We chose 4 princesses and 1 queen as inspiration for our cookies. The hardest part was finding a short enough saying for the cookies. Here is what we came up with.

Princess Aurora - "My Dream"





Ariel - "Kiss the Girl"




Belle - "Be My Guest"




Princess Anna and Queen Elsa (and friend) - "You Melt Me"





These cookies are a fun way to celebrate Valentines Day. You can even share them with your true love.






What treats will you make for your Valentine this year? Let us know in the comments.
