    Cute and easy mini puff pastry hearts recipe for Valentines Day - fun Valentines treat for kids

    Valentine's Day is just around the corner so I have a fun Valentine's Day recipe for you today. These cute sprinkle covered puff pastry hearts are really quick and easy to make with kids and perfect for popping in lunch boxes, popping in gift bags for friends or serving up as a fun Valentines treat!

    I used some puff pastry that was leftover from another recipe to make these little heart pastries, but you could of course make a bigger batch of them if you have a whole pack to use up.

    How to make cute and easy sprinkle covered puff pastry hearts - fun and easy Valentines Day recipe for kids

    I must admit this recipe was a bit of an experiment as I wasn't sure how well the sprinkles would bake, but in the course of my research I came across this cute Sprinkle Sticks recipe which gave me the confidence to give them a go!

    You can use any colour sprinkles of your choice to customise this recipe, and of course cut your pastry into other shapes if wanted. I used pink and red sprinkles for extra Valentine's fun and found that the pink sprinkles faded a little during baking but the red sprinkles retained their colour really well.

    I think it really does depend on the brand and colour of your sprinkles, so if you give it a go please comment below with what brands and colours of sprinkles worked well for you!
