Chocolate-Dipped Crescent Hearts Recipe
These pretty little crescent heart cookies are
fast, easy, colorful, and tasty. I am partial to dark chocolate
with these cookies, but use your favorite. If you are a true
chocoholic, you may want to cover them completely in chocolate.
Your choice. Perfect forValentine's
Day or any special occasion. Let the kids
help.

cookies
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup (about) red decorator granulated sugar crystals
- 1 (8-ounce) can refrigerated crescent rolls
-
1/2 teaspoon (about)
cinnamon - 2 Tablespoons butter, melted
-
1 cup semi-sweet or
chocolate (optional) -
1 ounce
paraffin wax, grated or chopped
Preparation:
Sprinkle half of the red sugar on the cutting board. Unroll
crescent roll dough, separate into 4 rectangles, and place on top
of the sugared board. Press the perforations to seal, then gently
press dough into the sugar. Brush rectangles with half of the
melted butter. Sprinkle generously with all of the cinnamon and
remaining red sugar.
From the long side, roll one rectangle jelly-roll fashion up to the center of the dough. Then roll the top side down to meet the bottom in the center. Repeat with remaining dough rectangles. Wrap each log in plastic wrap and refrigerate about 30 to 60 minutes (or overnight) to firm up.
Preheat oven to 375 F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper orsilpats.
Remove dough, unwrap and place on cutting board. Slice each roll into 8 pieces and place cut-side down about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking tray. Press down to 1/2-inch thickness and pinch the bottom of each slice to a point to form a heart shape. Brush with remaining melted butter.
Bake 10 to 13 minutes until golden. Reshape cookies if necessary and let cool.
Melt paraffin wax in the top of a double-boiler. Add chocolate, stirring constantly until smooth. Remove from heat. Transfer melted chocolate to a shallow juice cup. Dip crescent heart cookies halfway into melted chocolate. Place dipped cookies on waxed or freezer paper. Refrigerate to harden chocolate if necessary.

Strawberry Nutmeg Muffins Recipe
Fresh strawberries, nutmeg, and pecans make thesemuffins memorable.
This may seem like a lot of nutmeg, but the flavor mellows with
heat. This recipe can also be used to make strawberry
nutmeg bread.
I like to use half of the batter for muffins and half for a loaf of
quick bread. Both are great for snacks or breakfast.
