Valentine’s Day Treats You Can Eat
Valentine's Day isn't a huge deal in my neck of the woods. DudeDad has never been a fan, and The Dudes don't enjoy pink or hearts or girls at school getting the wrong idea about love.
Buuuuut, everyone loves an excuse to enjoy something yummy.
Here are some easy, edible treats to help you say “I heart you!”
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownies. Because brownies and cookies were made to be eaten together.
Easy Cake Mix Cookies. Forgot to make something for the Valentine's Day party at work? Don't look like a loser. Make these instead.
Mini Red Velvet Milkshakes. It's perfectly acceptable to drink your dessert. Especially when red velvet is involved.
Heart Rice Krispie Pops. All you need is the pan and a stick to make a traditional treat into something festive.
Fresh Spinach and Lump Crab Omelettes. A la Valentine's Day. It doesn't have to be pink and red and have hearts all over to be made from your heart. Or delicious.

Strawberry Vanilla Trifle. For layer upon layer of smooth Valentine's Day goodness.
Heart-Shaped Biscuits. They go with breakfast and/or dinner. Want to really show your love? Cut them in half and slide in some bacon.
No-Bake Valentine's Day treats. For people who lack an oven — or the desire to cook before they grub.
Dipped Pretzels. This one requires no baking either and takes five minutes or less. Ummmmm, chocolate.
