Ingredients
Fortune Cookies
- 12 store bought fortune cookies
Chocolate Melts
- 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup Wilton pink chocolate melts
- 1/4 cup Wilton white chocolate melts
- 1/4 cup Wilton red chocolate melts
Sprinkles
- Assorted Valentine sprinkles
- White sugar pearls
- Heart sprinkle mix
- Sweetheart sprinkles
- Jumbo heart confetti sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare the baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and set it aside for placing the dipped cookies.
- Melt semi-sweet chocolate: Place the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 45 seconds. Stir thoroughly until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth, ensuring even coating later.
- Dip cookies in semi-sweet chocolate: Dip four fortune cookies halfway into the melted semi-sweet chocolate. Place each dipped cookie onto the prepared baking sheet, then immediately sprinkle them with assorted Valentine sprinkles for decoration.
- Melt pink chocolate melts: In a separate microwave-safe bowl, microwave the Wilton pink chocolate melts for 45 seconds. Stir until fully melted and smooth, ready for dipping.
- Dip cookies in pink chocolate: Dip another four fortune cookies halfway into the melted pink chocolate. Arrange them on the baking sheet and decorate with Valentine sprinkles to add color and texture.
- Melt red chocolate melts: Microwave the Wilton red chocolate melts in a microwave-safe bowl for 45 seconds. Stir well until completely melted and smooth for the final dip.
- Dip cookies in red chocolate: Dip the last four fortune cookies halfway into the melted red chocolate. Place them on the baking sheet and immediately cover with the assorted Valentine sprinkles to complete the look.
- Chill to set: Place the baking sheet with the decorated cookies in the refrigerator for 15 minutes. This chilling step allows the chocolate coatings to harden, giving the cookies a glossy finish and ensuring the sprinkles stick properly.
Notes
- You can substitute store-bought fortune cookies with homemade ones for a more personalized touch.
- The melting times may vary slightly depending on your microwave’s wattage; stir frequently to avoid burning the chocolate.
- Ensure cookies are completely dry before dipping to prevent chocolate seizing.
- Store finished cookies in an airtight container in a cool place for up to one week.
- Feel free to mix and match different sprinkle types to customize the look.
