You can’t celebrate love without some sugar in it. Desserts have always been part of a Valentine’s day. So let us look at some simple desserts that you can make quickly and enjoy to your heart’s content.

 

A Souffle is a very good option for such a day. It is simple dessert that is not very demanding in terms of ingredients and your time. All you need is 3 tablespoons of butter, 2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa, 3 ounces of semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, 2 egg yolks, 2 egg whites, 2 tablespoons sugar a pinch salt and a pinch of cream of tartar. Mixing all this in correct proportions in 375 F, will give the best Souffle ever. All this will not take you more than 45 minutes.

I have something for the pudding lovers too. This Valentine’s Day taste a yummy chocolate cinnamon pudding only for you and your partner made with 1/2 a cup of unsweetened cocoa powder,1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon,1/4 a cup of cornstarch,2/3 of cup, 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar,2 1/2 cups of whole milk,1 1/4 cups of heavy cream,2 teaspoons of vanilla extract and 1 1/2 cups of fresh raspberries, or frozen raspberries. Serve warm or chilled in just 15 minutes.

Valentine’s Day is very good time to try out some Chocolate Panini. It is a a wonderful combination of 4 slices of challah or white bread and 2 ounces of chopped semisweet chocolate. That’s it! It wont take you more than 5 minutes to form 2 sandwiches with the bread and chocolate and cook until the bread is golden brown and the chocolate has melted.

If you want to do something more elaborate, try the romantic Brownie Sundae. You will have to spend 60 minutes in the kitchen bringing together 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour,1/4 teaspoon of salt,1/4 teaspoon of baking soda,2 tablespoons of cocoa powder,3 ounces of bittersweet chocolate, chopped, or semisweet chocolate chips,3 tablespoons of unsalted butter, plus more for greasing foil,1/2 cup of granulated sugar,1 large egg along with the yolk and finally 1 teaspoon vanilla strawberry ice cream.
