These adorable looking cookies would make for a great V-Day gift for friends, family, coworkers, and even your current crush. They’re really buttery, crumbly and scrumptious. The sharpness of the raspberry jam does wonders against the cookie and the sweetness of the chocolate. If the intended cookie recipient doesn’t love white chocolate, you can always omit it. Or, sub in some melted dark or milk chocolate instead of white. It definitely works either way. Scurry on over to Ahead of Thyme for the how to.

This Valentine’s Day dessert would be perfect for a Galentine’s Day get together. I’ve never made this cake and had anyone do anything but rave about it. The cake is really gorgeous to look at, for starters. But, the taste is also to die for. This is a recipe which requires a bit of work, as everything is made from scratch. Though, you could always cheat a little and used a boxed cake mix if you wanted to save a little bit of time. Personally, I also like to add a thin layer of a nice thick hot fudge sauce between the cake and icing layers. But with or without this extra ingredient, these little cakes are divine. The recipe also works for making just one big layer cake too, if you don’t want to make individual ones. Head over to Sugar Hero for the recipe.
