The way to a
man's person's heart is through their stomach. P R E A C H.
I could wax on about food and fun recipes and tell the story of why I made this dessert but let's be real we all know the real culprit here- Valentine's Day. Equal parts of love and loathing happen on this day and people all over the place rush into stores last minute to pick up little tokens of love or appreciation. Inspired by
this recipe by Rachel Conners and the adorable Girl Scouts who harass me on every street corner this time of year, this healthy~ish treat is a labor of love. These are totally animal product and gluten free plus made with natural almond butter- practically a vegetable.
Making food that I love with people that I love is my favorite thing any day of the year, Happy Galentines Day!
Find yourself a sous-chef who is handy in the kitchen and efficient with clean-up!

A few pro tips:
- Try and get natural/freshly ground almond butter (less oil= happier you)
- This process over an hour with the hardening time required: cut down by doing a layer of chocolate in the middle instead of dipping in the squares like the recipe suggests
- Keep these little bites in the fridge or freezer, they get mushy and damaged easily
- The more chocolate the better, honestly
With love and more love,
