The Thursday Thirteen – 02/11/2016

It’s all about the love this week. Is there a better way to say I heart someone than to give him or her a dessert coated in sugar, candy, or chocolate? Nope. It’s pretty much the best way ever to say I kinda sorta maybe like you more than anyone else on Earth. I’m trying to decide which dessert to make for the big day. As of now I’m thinking cupcakes. Cupcakes with hidden treasures inside, smothered in strawberry jam buttercream, and decorated with anything pink, red, or white that I can lay my sticky little hands on. I’m not sure when all of this holiday baking is going to take place, but I will somehow manage to make it happen. You never know when cupid’s arrow will veer off course, land smack dab in the middle of your bum, and force you to switch things up though. We’ll see what happens. Until then, here are some past Faith, Hope, Love, & Luck recipes that are guaranteed to get you and your special someone in the mood for love.
