Strawberry Cream Valentine Melts

Strawberry Cream Valentine Melts. An easy Valentine recipe!

Ingredients:
16 oz. powdered sugar
2 oz. cream cheese, softened to room temperature
Plain white sugar
Light corn syrup
Conversation hearts
2 squeezes of strawberry cream milk magic (found at the grocery store or on Amazon)

Directions:
In a mixer, combined the softened cream cheese, the pink strawberry cream Milk Magic with the powdered sugar.  Scrape the sides of the mixing bowl and mix until fully combined (and not sticky).

Pull off small (1/2 inch) pieces of the mixture and roll them into balls. Press the balls into a slightly flat shape (disc-like) and then roll it into a bowl of sugar.

Using a small brush, place a dab of corn syrup to the center of the flattened sugar covered ball. 

Press a conversation heart into the dough on top of the corn syrup.  As the corn syrup dries, it will act like glue and keep the conversation heart in place.

Store in an airtight container and refrigerate until ready to eat.  Makes about 30 Valentine melts.
