Valentine’s Day is the perfect holiday to showcase your dessert-making skills with a variety of delicious ingredients. Chocolate, of course, is the most widely used ingredient in any dessert and is easily paired with fresh fruits, nuts and coconut. Local produce is perfect for any Valentine’s Day treat; pomegranates and cranberries can be found throughout the winter, as well as raspberries, blueberries and strawberries (though they are usually more expensive). Citrus can also be substituted for any fruit when paired with cocoa.
Desserts, especially on Feb. 14, need not be complex to be impressive. The recipes below are easy to make and delicious to share with your valentine!
