Valentines Day No-bake Cookie Hearts

No bake cookies are one of the easiest desserts to make, and these fun heart shaped cookies are so festive. 

Another great thing about these cookies is that you can change up the color to suit your needs easily. Just use a candy melt or add some food coloring to melted white chocolate.

The secret to a perfect heart shaped cookie

These cookies are delicious, but they also have the perfect heart shape. The secret is using a cookie cutter and scooping the no bake cookie dough into the cookie cutter to let it harden. 

This gives you a nice clean edge. 

How to decorate these cookies

The great thing about no bake cookies is that you can decorate it with just about any kind of icing, white chocolate, or candy melts. 

I personally like to use colored white chocolate, but candy melts is another easy alternative. 

What other shapes can no bake cookies be formed into?

You can actually form these cookies into lots of different shapes, so long as you have the cookie cutter! Check out my Christmas Tree no bake cookies here for another fun twist on this classic.

How do you freeze these no bake cookies?

No bake cookies freeze easily, but it's best to leave the decorating until you are ready to eat. Place the cookies in a freezer bag laying them flat. 

Let them thaw at room temperature before eating.
