3-D Valentine's Day Cookies

Need a unique V-Day classroom exchange idea?

How about Cute 3-D Valentine’s Day Cookies and Juice Pouches!

Cookies are fun. They’re fun to make and they’re even more fun to eat, right?! But have you ever made a 3-D cookie?! I bet you haven’t. Neither had I until I found these awesome-sauce 3-D Valentine’s Day cookie cutters! What the what??!!

I found these really awesome 3-D cookie cutters at Walmart in the V-Day seasonal aisle from Bakery Crafts. The seasonal aisle at Walmart is like my personal playground. Anywhoo…Bakery Crafts also had cute candy hearts and a sweet Valentine’s Day Decorating Kit with a banner and cupcake picks. But since we do cupcakes alot, I thought cookies would be fun so I went for these awesome cookie cutters. The whole 3-D cookie is a new concept to me, so I was ready to give these a whirl and I love how they turned out!!!

I was seriously going to go for some easy refrigerated cookie dough but I opted to use the sugar cookie recipe on the back of the cookie cutter package. I’m going to share that recipe with you…and then you can snag some of these cute Bakery Crafts 3-D Valentine’s Day cookie cutters and make some. Little man just thought that these were the coolest!

(Tip: When laying the cookies out on the cookie sheet, use caution when transferring the cut out dough. The trunk of the elephants and the tails of the lions are easy to break. I used the tip of a fork to loosen the dough from the cutters straight onto the cookie sheets.)

The recipe on the package made several cookies. The recipe makes approx. 5 animals (inlcuding the animal, legs, and the hearts for the ears and the mane). For each animal, you’re actually getting 4 cookies per animal. For classroom exchanges, I think we’ll package the cookies un-assembled and then let the kids assemble them themselves. I think they’d have a lot of fun doing that!

Sugar Cookie recipe ingredients:

  • 3 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 2 sticks of butter (room temp)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions:

  • Combine flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, mix butter and sugar with a mixer.
  • Mix in egg and vanilla.
  • Incorporate dry ingredients into the creamed mixture.
  • Refrigerate dough for at least 1 hour.
  • Dust with flour before rolling out the dough.
  • Roll out cookie dough and cut pieces using the cookie cutters in the Bakery Crafts 3-D Valentine’s Day Cookie Cutter kit. *Reference the packaging as to how many pieces you will need to cut to complete your cookie animals.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes, let cookies cool completely.
  • Ice the cookies using any flavor icing you like. We used cookie icing.
  • Assemble the pieces together to make your own animals. For classroom exchange, package pieces individually and let the kids assemble for fun.
