Did you realize that Valentine's day is right around the corner? Do you have any plans? Do you know what are you going to make for your loved one on a Valentine's day?
In Japan, Valentine's day is more like for a women giving chocolate for men. We also have what we call "White day" and the men who received chocolate on Valentine's day would return something to the woman.
Here is the U.S., it is more like a even for a couple and not necessarily from women to men.
I am still thinking about what I am going to do on Valentine's day this year. Come to think of it, we hadn't spent Valentine's days together this past few years due to our schedules. This year, we will be able to spend Valentine's day together! I appreciate my husband everyday but it is also nice to have a day to celebrate our love with lots of sweets :-)
When I think about Valentine's day, I think about Chocolate. I am not yet an excellent baker but one of my favorite cake which I make sometimes and always come out great is this "Flourless Chocolate cake" from Tyler Florence.
I have a photo from last year. This is how it look. It should have a crack on top.
I think chocolate lovers would absolutely love this cake. Sprinkle confectioners sugar and eat it with whipped cream. I like eating this warm so if it is cold, I would put it in a microwave for a little bit. It is also great with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
If you are making this for Valentine's day, it might be a good idea to make this in a heart shaped container. I don't have it so maybe I will curve it like a heart.
This recipe is from Tyler Florence who is one of my favorite celebrity chef here. Everything I try from his recipe has not disappointed me so far. I love his recipes. They are all so good. I think Tyler and I have same taste bud :-) Anyway, here is the cook I own. It is a great book.
I found this flourless chocolate cake recipe on Food network site also so I like it here→ Click here for Tyler's Flourless chocolate cake recipe
