Cherry and Cream Cheese Hand Pies

These beautiful little heart-shaped pies are stuffed with bright red sweet cherries and tangy cream cheese.

The flavour combination is like a classic cheesecake, all stuffed into the buttery, flaky, goodness of a pie shell. Served with a scoop of classic vanilla ice cream, what’s not to love?

Mini Ombre Cakes with Cream Cheese Frosting

These mini cakes look so glamorous with their layers all in varying shades of pastel pink. It might look hard to make, but this recipe actually makes use of box cake mix to make your life easier!

Pink Lemonade Cheesecake Parfaits

This fun twist on cheesecake looks beautiful and comes together in a pinch. You can easily substitute the pink lemonade flavour for fresh citrus or strawberry too, but the pink colour is undoubtedly festive. Perfect for a Galentine’s party!

Bailey’s Chocolate Fondue

This is a dessert for the adults! A traditional chocolate fondue, but infused with the boozy goodness of Bailey’s Irish Cream Liqueur.

Serve it with fresh strawberries, slices of cake, or really anything that tastes delicious when dipped in chocolate (we’re sure you can get creative!) – just make sure you can dip responsibly. Get the recipe here.

Perfect Molten Lava Cakes

Ooey-gooey lava cakes look absolutely stunning when done correctly, and they’re not as complex to make as you might think! They’re essentially underbaked chocolate cakes, and their molten chocolate center is positively luscious.

Pair with ice cream and caramel sauce for a restaurant-quality dessert in your own kitchen. Try this no-fail recipe.

Red Velvet Crepes

Crepes aren’t just for breakfast! These gorgeous red velvet crepes are a glamorous finish to any Valentine’s meal. Stuff them Nutella, whipped cream, and strawberries, or crème anglaise and raspberry jam. Customize them to yours and your Valentine’s favourite fillings!

Sex in a Pan

What could be a more show-stopping dessert than Sex in a Pan? The name says it all (or maybe too much!).

This old-school dessert is a simple combination of a shortbread crust, vanilla and chocolate pudding, cream cheese frosting, and whipped cream, but the whole thing together is pure magic. Perfect for a memorable Valentine’s Day in!

Have some fun in the kitchen and #TreatYoSelf to these decadent Valentine desserts. It’s the perfect occasion for all things sweet, chocolatey, and pink!
