I’ve always enjoyed Valentine’s Day. Not because I had a boyfriend or secret admirer to shower me with flowers, chocolate, and a candle light dinner, but I just think it is a fun holiday. In grade school, I always looked forward to making Valentine’s cards for all of my classmates at school. Valentine’s Day parties were the best! My dad always made Valentine’s Day special by spoiling me and my sister with flowers and candy-dads are always the best Valentine:) I also love all of the pink and red decorations and candy that fill the stores this time of year. The other day I was walking through the Valentine’s Day aisle and stumbled upon Hershey’s Raspberry Hugs candy. I grabbed a bag and came home to create a special Valentine’s Day cookie-Raspberry Hugs Chocolate Cookies. Yay for Valentine’s Day!
If you haven’t tried the Hershey’s Raspberry Hugs, run to the store to find a bag. FYI-I found them at Target. The milk chocolate kisses are “hugged” by raspberry white creme. The Hugs are sweet with a layer of white chocolate and raspberry stripe on the outside and have a milk chocolate core. The Hugs are wrapped in shiny pink and silver foil which makes them perfect for Valentine’s Day.
I love raspberry and chocolate together so I made a rich chocolate cookie dough to wrap around the Raspberry Hugs. They were the perfect little surprise inside of the chocolate cookies. You can never have enough chocolate, so I added a white chocolate drizzle to the tops of the cookies. It complimented the Hugs nicely and made the cookies look extra special. So are you a lover or hater of Valentine’s Day? Even if you don’t enjoy the holiday, you can still enjoy these Raspberry Hugs Chocolate Cookies. They are divine! And if you have a special someone to celebrate Valentine’s Day with this year, I am sure they would love to receive a dozen of these cookies.
