Whether you're a parent looking for a fun activity to make with your kids or a teacher looking for a sweet classroom surprise, these Valentine's Day Cookie Pops are sure to put a smile on every face. So let's get started and prepare something sweet and festive to share with the ones we love! Time: 25 minutes Yield: 8-10 servings Ingredients:
  • 1 cup colored candy melts (you can use pink or red for valentines day)
  • 2 Tbsp. another color candy melt
  • 8-10 sandwich cookies (your favorite kind)
  • Sprinkles
Directions: 1. Prepare a cookie sheet fit with parchment paper then place your favorite kind of sandwich cookie a couple inches apart onto the cookie sheet. When picking out which cookie you want to use, make sure to consider the fact that you will need to place a cake pop stick through the center! Any cookie that has a cream filling will do. 2. Carefully place cake pop sticks in the center of the cookie. Be gentle with this step to help avoid breaking the cookies. Only insert the cake pop stick about halfway through the cookie. 3. Melt down your desired color of candy melts in 30 second intervals mixing between each time until fully melted. You can also use chocolate for this step if you prefer not to use candy melts. 4. Take your time slowly dipping each cookie pop in the candy melts while letting the excess candy melts drip off before placing back onto the prepared cookie sheet. Continue this process for each cookie. 5. Add some festive sprinkles or drizzle on another color candy melt on top of your coated cookie pops. 6. Let the cookie pops set in the fridge for about 10 minutes. 7. Enjoy!   Valentine's Day Baking Valentine's Day Bundle - complete with fluffy Red Velvet Cupcakes & chewy White Chocolate Blondies!

Frequently asked questions

What comes in a Baketivity baking kit?

Each Baketivity baking kit includes pre-measured dry ingredients, easy step-by-step instructions, and fun educational activities designed for kids. Our recipes are created to help children learn real kitchen skills while baking something delicious with their family.

Do I need to buy additional ingredients?

You may only need to add a few fresh ingredients like eggs, butter, or milk, depending on the recipe. Most of the dry ingredients come pre-measured in the kit, making baking simple, convenient, and mess-free for kids.

What equipment do I need to use the baking kits?

Most families already have everything they need at home. Typically you'll need mixing bowls, a whisk, fork or spoon, measuring cups, and a lined baking pan. Some recipes may also require a microwave-safe bowl or oven.

What age are Baketivity baking kits best for?

Baketivity baking kits are designed for kids ages 4–16. Younger children may need a little help from a parent, while older kids can follow the instructions more independently and build confidence in the kitchen.

Do your baking kits contain nuts?

Nuts are not directly included in the recipes or ingredient lists. However, some components may be produced in facilities that also process nuts, sesame seeds, soy, and gluten, so trace amounts may be present.

Are Baketivity baking kits kosher?

Yes! All ingredients included in Baketivity baking kits are OU-certified kosher, and our facility is FDA-approved, so families can bake and enjoy their treats with confidence.

My ingredients feel hard or clumpy. Is that normal?

Yes! Our ingredients are vacuum-packed to keep them fresh, which can sometimes make them feel firm or clumpy. Simply open the bag and give it a shake, and the ingredients will loosen up and be ready to use.
