Another year, Another Valentine’s Day. This year, it would be really, really great if Ed Sheeran could swing on over to Australia and be my date. I can make dinner and we can rewatch Game of Thrones in preparation for the upcoming season. Or, you know, I’m open to suggestions.
While I wait for my phone to ring, here’s a recipe round up for Valentine’s Day. It’s just a few recipes I thought would work well for that evening. There will be two new recipes coming Thursday and Friday as well. I just want to rephotograph one but I’ve been feeling icky the past few days. Don’t worry, Ed. I’ll be perfectly fine by Friday.
Breakfast:
Red Velvet Nutella Breakfast Rolls
Dinner:
Pumpkin Burgers with a side of Beer Fries
Spicy Black Bean and Quinoa Soup, for those facing more snow this week
Dessert:
Peanut Butter Chocolate Crispy Treats
The Perfect Chocolate Cupcakes
Red Velvet Beet Cupcakes
Dessert for One: For those staying in and flying solo, these pair great with wine, popcorn and a chick flick
so…i made the “Perfect Chocolate Cupcakes” with a peanut butter frosting for my roomie’s birthday. HUGE SUCCESS! One of her friends exclaimed, oh my god these are the best things I’ve ever eaten! and promptly ate 2….
I’m glad they were a hit! Every time I make them, and I’m food processing the ingredients, I think, “Maybe I’m remembering these tasting better then they really are…”. Then I cook them, they are delicious and I eat like 5. Definitely my favorite cupcake recipe 🙂
