On Saturday my 2 little granddaugters came over and we decided to make some Valentine treats. My little Marisa Belle LOVES to bake. So I had found this cute pan made by Wilton. I thought it might be fun to do some sugar cookies this way. So we mixed up some cookie dough and tried it out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Marisa liked actually dumping all the ingredients in herself, so I did the measuring……she did the dumping….and the mixmaster did the rest! <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
This is one of my fav appliances…does all the work for me!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
We also made some with the Valentine Cookie cutters<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

You guys just keep bakin em and I’ll keep eatin em! <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Here’s little 2 year old Megan getting in on the action. She just liked eating the dough, the candies, and the finished cookies. She is not looking like a future Betty Crocker.  But you never know for sure……<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Mmmmmmmm GOOD! <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

The cute Wilton pan….<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

\ufeff <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
I read the directions afterwards….fill 3\/4 full……OOPS! No wonder they were so puffy! <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

\ufeff I had these cute little sprinkles I had bought at Hobby Lobby along with the Wilton pan. Then I saw some even CUTER ones at Roberts Crafts.  These flat heart sprinkles will be so much fun! <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
I loved the flat heart sprinkles…so cute! <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

\ufeff <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
I’m really good at this grandma! <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

\ufeff We made up some pink icing and decorated the cookies. They really ballooned up like puff balls. I think I needed to use less batter…..sometimes don’t ya just think…..MORE is BETTER?   I get carried away with that.  \ud83d\ude42 <\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

Here they are enjoying their cookies.  I think I liked just the rolled out ones we made better.  Oh well, you never know until you try something new!  I wonder what Martha Stewart would say about these molded cookie pans……I should have asked the expert.  Sigh…..or maybe I should have just followed the directions. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Can I take all these home? Please? <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
<\/div>\n

\ufeff <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Just gimme the candy on top…that’s all I really want….<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

\ufeff Oh well.  It’s the fun memories I’m making that count the most anyway.  I think the girls loved our finished products.  Yum! <\/p>\n

\ufeff <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
And I made it all by myself! <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
