Get your oven ready by preheating it to 350°F (175°C).
Firmly press your cookie dough into each heart-shaped cavity of a silicone mold, filling it about three-quarters of the way. Make sure it's nice and compact!
Place the filled mold onto a baking sheet and pop it into the preheated oven. Bake for about 10-13 minutes, or until the edges look lightly golden.
Once baked, carefully remove the mold from the oven and let the cookies cool down completely in the mold. This is key for easy release!
Gently pop the cooled cookie hearts out of their molds. They should release effortlessly when fully cooled.
Pour your colorful sprinkles into a small bowl and lay out some wax paper or a silicone mat nearby.
Melt the candy melts following the package directions – usually a quick microwave session!
Dip one half of each cookie heart into the melted candy, then immediately dip it into the sprinkles for a pretty coating. Place them on the wax paper to set until the chocolate hardens.
Share and enjoy your lovely, homemade Valentine's treats!
