Every Valentine's day I bake something special or make candy something for my kids classroom's, church dinner, bible study and special friends etc. Kids or husband help sometimes. Always like something new - sometimes buy the new cookie utter's or candy/lollipop shapes (usually a variation on heart, cupid).

If you want to try these are some recipes/strategies with store bought dough, that might help. I like the thumb print ones because kids contribute the print (love anything with kid partiipation thats simple and defined.
