Valentine's Treat Ideas...

I went through my archives and found some cute ideas I posted for Valentines Day last year. I thought they were pretty darn cute and deserved another go around. I don't know if you are looking for any more Valentine's ideas, but here are some hard to resist ideas...

I am noticing a theme here...oatmeal and chocolate last year...and oatmeal and chocolate this year! I guess I am really digging the oatmeal cookie :)




Rice Krispie Hearts...with Chocolate

You haven't had rice krispie treats until you have added chocolate to them. Want an ever better treat...add Nutella on top!




A Frugal Valentine's Cookie Container

It doesn't get much more frugal than this. Use the oatmeal container...making the above cookies, of course, and re purpose the container for transporting the cookies to your Valentine! Decorate the container with some paper and craft stuff you have on hand and it turns out pretty cute. If you are anything like me, you have a plethora of scrapbook stuff...in a scrapbook room...and you really don't even scrapbook!

Great idea for using your oatmeal container. It is very cute all dressed up! I love chocolate and oatmeal together.

Thanks for the ideas. They're just in time! I wanted to make a dessert for my hubby and just happen to have Rice Krispies on hand. The hearts would be perfect!

Tightwad Mom,

Yes, something you have proven to me...you can find a way to use everything up!

It's amazing what I forget that you posted that I meant to try. Thanks for the reminders.

Misty,

Well, I forget them and I am the one that posted them...so I would imagine you would too :)
