This easy romantic dessert is sure to help you win the heart of your valentine. It’s light, decadent and easy to make! You’ll love it!

I can’t believe Valentine’s Day is almost here.

Didn’t we just finish putting away all of the Christmas decorations?

This year, Valentine’s Day is on a Monday and that isn’t the greatest night to go out to dinner.

So most people will likely celebrate the prior weekend. 

And therein lies the dilemma … 

Because if you’re like me, you’ll still want to do something just a little bit special on the actual day.

Plus you’ll likely feel just a little bit of guilt for staying at home.

But not if you make this dessert!

There won’t be one ounce of guilt!

This easy romantic dessert is a great touch to end your Valentine’s Day celebration on just the right note. 

You can make it with either semisweet or dark chocolate and it is decadent and delicious, yet light.

Plus, it’s really easy to make.

It can be served with or without homemade Raspberry Sauce.

And I found a great wine to pair it with.

Because even though you’re at home, and even though it’s Monday night, you can still make it a special day, without a lot of fuss! 

You’ll love it! 

Happy Valentine’s Day!

THE PERFECT WINE FOR THIS EASY ROMANTIC DESSERT

Come to find out, pairing wine and chocolate is actually a fairly complex process.

After a little research on Winefolly.com, I determined a port would be the best pairing for this dessert.

Interestingly, it also confirmed I was completely on the right track with the theme for this evening, as wine and chocolate are both considered aphrodisiacs according to the site!

Perfect for a Valentine’s Day celebration!

PRO TIP: For our client events, we are all about trusting the trained professionals with whom we choose to partner. That means not second-guessing the chef, letting the sommelier do her work, and expecting the same respect in return. These people have studied their craft for years and have tons of experience. It would be insulting to not follow their advice. Like a marriage, it’s a fantastic partnership.
