Here are our favorite indulgent chocolate recipes that work perfectly, no matter who you’re celebrating with:

Choconut-Mint Squares are perfect if you’re looking for a healthy yet decadent and tasty treat! I love combining the peppermint flavor with the creamy coconut and chocolate – it reminds me of the “After Eight” mint chocolates we had as treats when I was a child! Read more and recipe.
