    Twenty Sensational Sweet Vegan Valentine Recipes

    4
    By Alisa Fleming on February 13, 2013 In The News, News

    Over the holidays I was overwhelmed to see all of the wonderful gifts that people made for their loved ones and friends, whether a hand-knitted scarf or a delicious gift from the kitchen. But who says homemade gifts should only be given in the last month of the year? What about that precious holiday known as Valentine’s Day? You know, the one where giving gifts from the heart means even more. I think it’s time to save your pocketbook the pain of a dozen expensive roses, and instead make one of these fabulous vegan valentine recipes.

    Sweet Vegan Valentine Recipes - delicious dairy-free, egg-free, plant-based treats to surprise your loved ones.

    Since some of you, like me, may have been skipped when the crafty gene was passed on, I stuck to the more basic yet still insanely delicious plant-based and vegan valentine recipes. They might look impressive, but for the most part, the following don’t require any special decorating skills:

     Vegan Chocolate Cherry “Cheesecake”

    You will be amazed by both the decadence and the simplicity of this luxurious dessert.

    Vegan Valentine Recipes: Robin's Cherry Chocolate Cheesecake

    Strawberry Love Muffins

    A heart shaped muffin pan really sends this baked treat over the top.

    Vegan Valentine Recipes: My Sweet Vegan Love Muffins

    Peanut Butter Pretzel Chocolate Hearts

    A fun one to make with kids! Of course, you can skip the pretzels and go with the original peanut butter truffle recipe for an equally delicious treat.

    Miniature Chocolate-Covered Cheesecake Bites of Love

    Another dairy-free cheesecake-inspired indulgence, but this one is soy-free and downright healthy, to boot!

    Overnight Vegan Double-the-Cinnamon Rolls

    Okay, so it isn’t heart shaped, nor chocolate, but who wouldn’t love to wake up to one (or three) of these?

    I’m Choco for You Candies

    Four simple ingredients for one scrumptious little treat.

    Chocolate Cashew Vegan Valentine Truffles

    Simple, luxurious vegan truffles dressed in red sprinkles for the occasion.

      I haven’t yet decided what kind of chocolate treat we’ll be enjoying tomorrow but I’m sure there will be one! These cupcakes were a hit last year: http://www.carascravings.com/2012/02/chocolate-raspberry-cupcakes-for-love-your-heart.html

      Great round-up, Alisa!
      My two favorite nondairy V-Day treat recipes are these Raw Raspberry Cream Filled Chocolate Candies and these no-bake/sugar-free Berry-Pomegranate Cookie Bites!
