I love holidays and Valentine’s Day is no exception! I remember how much fun I used to have in grade school when we would decorate the room in red and pink and exchange cards asking people to “be my valentine”.

It’s definitely a day of temptation though – who can resist all of the chocolate floating around this time of year? I found this great dessert recipe, though, and I think it would make an excellent healthy ending to a Valentine’s Day dinner.

If you try it out, let me know what you thought!
