A Perfect Sweet Treat for Valentines Day- A Healthy Alternative to Candy- Dark Chocolate with Heart Shaped Fruit

Want a fun idea to make Valentines Special without giving your kids or yourself a belly full of candy and sweets?

Serve Fresh Fruit that is cut into hearts with a Tablespoon of Melted Dark Chocolate Chips (1 Tbsp per person).

Your kids will gobble up the fruit and love dipping it into the heart healthy dark chocolate.

It is just enough of a treat but a much healthier option.  Perfect for dessert or even after lunch snack.

 

To Make:

Cut up bananas and/or strawberries (or other fruit) into slices

Use a small heart shaped cookie cutter to make shapes or use a pairing knife to make the shapes by hand.

Put dark chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl and cook until just melted (most microwaves have a melt setting for chocolate).

After Chocolate is cool enough to eat, serve with fruit and a small fork or toothpicks.

 

Enjoy!  This is also a perfect little Valentines treat for you to enjoy by yourself or with your family.  I prefer to enjoy after the kids go to bed!
