Single or in a relationship one thing we can all agree on is dessert. Holidays are always a reason to indulge, Valentines Day especially. With all of the red velvet, respberry filled and triple chocolate treats it’s hard to say no. Here are some at home recipes for delicous sweets that’ll have you falling back in love with your sweet tooth. 

 

Heart Shaped Chocolate Covered Strawberries

Who doesn’t love a good chocolate covered strawberry? These have a little Nutella surprise in them, or you can use any filling you’d like! Perfect as a gift or for table sweets.

Strawberry Truffle Kiss Cookies

One of my favorite holiday cookies is the peanut butter truffle cookies made with Hershey’s Kisses. When I came across this recipe I LOST it. These Valentines Day inspired cookies are made with cream cheese and strawberry cake mix. A festive twist with a flash of pink!

Hey guys, my name is Cas. I am a Senior at Pace Univeristy on the NYC campus. I am currently working on a dual degree in Communications and Fine Arts. I've been working with some friends of mine to start up our own creative platform called FUNKNVIBE. It's basically a way for artists, musicians, film makers and any creative minds to collaborate and create. When I'm not volunteering or with my FNV family I'm reading, dancing or working on my latest art piece. I hope to own and design my own publication showcasing the culture around me. I have a personal blog as well as my Her Campus page. I recently started up a blog with FunknVibe so definitely check it out!  I started out as the secretary at for HCPace but moved my way to VP and CC to now President. I love being able to give students on my campus a voice and connect new students to some type of a community. Her Campus has allowed me to organize myself better and find out what goes into running an organization. It's been an absolute joy and I hope for my last year we have one of the best!
