Valentine’s day is often about buying gifts, treating people to dinner dates or movies or at least purchasing a box of chocolates. But we all know that gifts made with your own two hands are way better than anything you can get at the store. So this year we thought we’d give you some cute Valentine’s Day cookie ideas that you could look at, get inspired and perhaps bake a few for your sweet Valentine.

1. M&M Cookies

There’s just something special about using red and pink M&M’s instead of chocolate chips and you know it. It’s sweeter and way cuter than regular chocolate chip cookies.

2. Be Mine Cookies

Sometimes you just want to be extra cute and spell out be mine on an edible treat, ok? It’s fine, no one is judging you.

3. Red Velvet Nutella Cookies

These are red, they’re chocolate chip and they’re stuffed with Nutella, so when you break it there’s all that gooey goodness and you’re already buying the ingredients aren’t you?

4. Brownie Cookies

A brownie but make it thin and crispy and shapes like a heart and tasting like a cookie. Listen it sounds crazy but it works.
