Vegan Valentines Sweet Recipe Collection

ah, Valentines Day.

the holiday so many like to dislike.

Single or attached, I have always liked Valentines Day. Single and spending it with friends, or in a relationship and celebrating.

Jason and I typically do not celebrate with a night out, and these days we may not always do gifts.

Well, since getting married, we actually do the traditional anniversary gifts on this day. Because Valentines Day is the day we secretly got married in 2014. Yep, we were married with just a few loved ones as witnesses, with …

Do you want to guess how many times I typed caramelized onion rocky road bark?

Every time, that’s how many times. Apparently I love caramelized onions so much that my typing hands have a memory for them.

Mmm, they are good.

…and so are caramelized almonds. A totally different technique to make those, but just like a pan of caramelized onions, I could stand at the kitchen counter and eat a whole pan of these almonds.

Onions almonds onions almonds – confused yet?

vibrant pistachio-lime crunch bars

I am so excited about this next Vegan Valentines recipe, I want you all to be my Valentine. I want everyone to taste how vibrant these flavors are. Really, the flavors just pop!

I am on my … fourth? fifth? batch of these, and am not stopping any time soon – we both love these bars. I dip them into smoothies, I have them with breakfast, they are a perfect afternoon snack. This is a simple recipe, using a very short list of ingredients.

When they’re bite size, they are perfect for grabbing a couple on my way to the gym or before a run. Just a little healthy truffle:

Raspberry Lemon Cheesecake Cookies

Raspberry Lemon Cheesecake Cookies – soft and fresh with sweet berries and a tangy cheesecake flavor, these gluten free vegan cookies are everyone’s new favorite!

Raspberry Lemon Cheesecake Cookies

Raspberries are high on my list of favorite fruit.

My favorite are the local farmers market berries I inhale by the pint, and I cannot wait for those. In the meantime, I buy them every so often from the co-op.

This next recipe for Vegan Valentines – Raspberry Lemon Cheesecake Cookies – is one I have had in my head for a bit. I have wanted to add fresh fruit to a cookie, and a cheesecake component just naturally fits with raspberry, doesn’t it?

These cookies are at their best warm fresh from the oven, which is why this recipe is a small batch. I store them in the refrigerator, and put them in the toaster oven for a bit – bringing back their warm freshness.

If you use freeze dried raspberries, the cookies ‘last’ longer than the fresh fruit cookie – but I like to make these when I’m taking them to a party or BBQ – where they will be enjoyed same day or next.
