Valentine’s Day Sandwich Cookies
These Easy Valentine’s Day Sandwich Cookies are perfect for a classroom party. Plus, they are simple to put throw together and fun to make. I have to admit, I don’t love the cold Winter months. The weather is always dreary and nothing exciting is happening. That’s why I love to go all-out for Valentine’s Day.
I’ve taught my oldest that it’s fun to celebrate all of the holidays. We bake special holiday treats together and pass them out as Valentines to friends and family. It puts such a smile on my sons face to hand out a baked good that he’s proud of.
If you’re really feeling creative, plan a Valentine’s Day party and let kids decorate their own cookies. You can offer different sprinkles, or even frosting colors, and let them go nuts.
However you chose to use this cookie recipe, everyone will love them!

Easy Valentine’s Day Sandwich Cookies
Start by hand-making the dough for the sugar cookies. I use a standing mixer to help get the job done faster. Be sure the roll the dough out carefully before using your heart cookie cutters. If you want a little extra flavoring, add 1/4 tsp of almond extract with your vanilla too! Cut and bake, then let cool.
Fill your piping bags with frosting and add the special decorative tip – you can purchase both on Amazon. Carefully, trace around the outer edge of the cookie. It’s optional to fill in the center of the cookie.
Place the second half of the cookie on top of your frosting to make the sandwich.
Pour your Valentine’s sprinkles into a dish. Gently, press each sandwich cookie into the sprinkles. Make sure to cover the entire cookie, all the way around.
Serve with milk as a dessert or snack. Perfect for grade-school kids to make with you!
