Sweets for Your Sweets
Hello there, loveys. I’d put Valentine’s Day in the category of throw-away holidays designed to boost the bottom lines of cheesy greeting card makers and florists nationwide. Don’t even get me started on the multitude of restaurants offering candlelit rooms full of deuces and overpriced prix fixe menus culminating with a heart-shaped dessert for two. Ick. Give me homemade cards, pink pancakes for breakfast and a night in with a good bottle of wine. Looking for homespun Valentine’s Day treats your sweeties will swoon over? I’ve got you covered.
- Heartbeet Pancakes with Raspberry Sauce
- Salted Chocolate Almond Kisses (XO!)
- Dark Chocolate Bark with Pistachios, Cherries and Sea Salt
- Olive Oil Yogurt Cake with Blood Orange Glaze
And those brownies you see above? They are chewy bittersweet brownies, the divine and most perfect creation of Jennifer Perrillo. Cut them into heart shapes and watch your lovelies go loopy.
Love and kisses to each and every one of you!
XO.
