A Valentine's Day dessert should be something very special. Mega delicious and yet easy to prepare. These red chocolates will love your sweetheart and you!

I'm not usually the overly romantic type, but on Valentine's Day it can be something sweet.

Baking an entire cake that the two of us can hardly eat or cooking an entire menu is something I'm less keen on. Small sweet chocolates are just what I need.

Especially because they are ready in just 10 minutes and look like a lot of effort went into them. Yet they are ready in a few simple steps. That's how I like it :)

So if you're looking for a healthy Valentine's Day dessert that's really easy to make, you've come to the right place.

Why you should make a Valentine's Day dessert yourself

Hey, the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. That should be argument enough. :) But there is of course more. Because anyone can buy chocolates. But times homemade to get presented, which also get along without sugar, not everyone has.

If you are afraid that the recipe is very complicated, I can reassure you: It is really very simple to prepare.

I love recipes where you just dump all the ingredients in a bowl and knead them together.

Therefore, these chocolates are ideal as a Valentine's Day dessert. Because honestly, who has much desire to stand forever in the kitchen, when you can use the time much better.

A delicious dessert is the most beautiful declaration of love there is.

The chocolates are

  • Low carb
  • Rich in protein
  • Lactose-free, if you process lactose-free cream cheese
  • free from household sugar
  • Very quickly finished

How to replace the ingredients in Valentine's Day dessert

You don't have this or that ingredient at home and no time to go shopping? No problem! I suggest you here a few alternatives with which it works just as well.

No raspberry powder

Help, I have no raspberry powder and also no beet powder, what now? Good question, first don't panic. You can of course roll the Valentine's Day dessert in other powder.

How about small chopped pistachios? They are then not red, but green is also nice :). Alternatively, you can take nuts of all kinds or quinoa puffs. Also wheatgrass or other powders are possible.

Or you take only beet powder, then the chocolates become a little more pink and less red. But nothing changes in terms of taste.

Low carb dessert recipe

No hazelnuts for the chocolates

You can replace hazelnuts 1:1 with almonds. If you don't have that at home either, try shredded coconut - it tastes like a wonderful summer vacation when combined with raspberries and cream cheese.

But be careful: coconut flakes absorb more liquid than hazelnuts. The exact ratio I can not tell you unfortunately, you have to experiment a little.

No erythritol for Valentine's Day dessert

It also works with Birch sugar*household sugar or Coconut blossom sugar*. At the Coconut blossom sugar* But you have to be a little careful, because it has a strong taste of caramel.

Whether you use powdered sugar or granulated sugar makes no difference.

Chocolates without cream cheese

Oh dear, that's really stupid now. Because without cream cheese it's difficult. With its consistency, it ensures that the balls do not fall apart and the ingredients stick together well.

Without guarantee and without having tried it: You could try using cottage cheese instead of cream cheese. Of course, this changes the taste, but thanks to applesauce, Erythritol* and nuts, you should hardly notice it.

Low carb Valentine's Day dessert

Our conclusion

Surprise your sweetheart this year with a very special Valentine's Day dessert. It tastes delicious and what is very important: It is easy and quick to prepare. Without a lot of frills and time consuming.

You are guaranteed to love the little healthy chocolates. Good luck!
