    42 Amazing Valentine's Day Desserts

    Published: Jan 21, 2016 · Modified: Aug 20, 2021 by Kelly Stilwell · This post may contain affiliate links Leave a Comment

    Whether going out to a party or staying home with family, Valentine's Day Desserts have to be part of your Valentine’s Day festivities! 

    Pinwheel cookies, cookie dough bites, boozy cake bites, and chocolate covered OREOs in a collage.

    I've found 42 amazing desserts and put them all together for your one-stop convenience!

    Back when Valentine's Day was just a romantic holiday, it wasn't desserts that lovers exchanged, but roses, songs, and poems. 

    Remember the cards we used to exchange in school? I have such fond memories of those days. 

    When I was in elementary school, I remember spending hours making that Valentine's Day box. Did you do that in school?

    I think we spent half a day in arts & crafts making that box! Boxes are so much more creative now. 

    For some fun ideas, check out this list of Valentine's Day Box ideas and get creative with your kids. I can tell you from experience, they really do grow up too fast!
