Sweethearts Bark


The other day I was dreaming about Valentine's Day and trying
to come up with new and creative ways to show my children how
much I love them. A light bulb went off and that's when I created
this adorable bark "aka" LOVE bark. This would be a perfect
treat for your little one to bring to school. Enjoy!

Sweethearts Bark

1 package candy melts
1 package sweetheart candies

Melt the candy melts in microwave about 2 min. Take out and
pour into an 8x8 pan lined with parchment paper and assemble
hearts and refrigerate until hard. Break into pieces and place in
bags.

    What a sweet idea for Valentine's Day. It just wouldn't be V Day without those little conversation hearts. I look forward to them every year. I'm starting a new linky on my blog tomorrow called "Sweets for a Saturday," and I'd like to invite you to stop by and link this up. If you want to link up those amazing cheesecake waffle cups, that would be awesome too.

    such a cute and easy idea. I've been looking for little surprise ideas for my bf for valentines day, but since we live together it's hard to surprise him. This would be fast and easy and I could be in and out of the kitchen in 5 min. - i'm doing this the next time he's in the bathroom :)

    Wow! Think of the possibilities and ways you can "tweek" this recipe for different holidays and celebrations ... Brilliant!

    I just made cake pops for my twins' second birthday party and they were fabulous ... another use for the candy chips.

    Cheers!
