Valentine’s Day is coming up, and there’s absolutely no need to forgo your keto diet! You can enjoy a romantic night out with your boo and treat yourself to a special dessert! I mean, what would Valentine’s Day be without chocolate?!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even though I am against Valentine’s day hype, consumerism, and processed sugar that comes with it, I am all for romance and chocolate! Especially when it’s made with only four ingredients. I used cocoa butter to achieve decadent texture, cream, and cocoa to balance the taste and stevia powder to make it sweet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Use a silicone mold to make them – heartshaped or round, and experiment with different shapes and sizes. You can wrap them up in paper and place them in a decorative box and voila – you have a perfect Valentine’s gift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
