These adorable cookie spoons are something that I was planning on doing for my wedding out of town guest bags; but I never got around to making them! They go perfect with a cup of cocoa and are a wonderful addition to a coffee bar. :) The best part is that they are quite cheap to make, 120 spoons for about $50 if you have to buy all the ingredients.
Supplies:
Spoon Shaped Cookie Cutter
2 – 10 oz White Candy Melts
2 – 10 oz Chocolate Candy Melts
Sugar Cookie Dough (Here is my recipe)
1. Prepare the Sugar Cookie dough according to the recipe you plan to use. For the recipe I used, it will make around 120 spoons if you use all the dough. In general you want the dough to hold its shape and not flatten out, so try not to use the store bought stuff (If you do, add a little flour into the dough before rolling it out).
2. Sprinkle flour on your work surface and roll the dough out to a little over ¼” and cut out spoons with the cookie cutter. Transfer to a cookie sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes. Try to have your cookies come out on the crispier side; that will help them keep their strength for being dipped into coffee.
3. Once your cookies are cooled, melt the chocolate melts according to the package. Dip the end of each spoon into the chocolate then lay on parchment paper to cool. I put my candy melts in glasses so that it made dipping the cookies easier and made half of my cookies white and half dark chocolate.
4. Once the chocolate has hardened, use a spoon to drizzle the extra chocolate over the spoons, and you’re done!
These cookies are easy to make into cheap favors by simply putting them in cellophane bags and are the perfect addition to a welcome bag for a winter wedding! Leave any questions you have in the comments!
