Chocolate Brownie with Chocolate Chunks and Hidden Vegetables
You'd never guess that there's a load of vitamin-rich sweet potato lurking in these brownies. The veg lends itself well to creating the elusive, perfect-textured brownie, but all you will taste is chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate. Also, how gorgeous is the presentation? We highly encourage you to arrange your Valentine's Day meal in a similar floral-strewn fashion.

Reishi-Infused Raw PB+J Chocolate Cups
These are not the peanut cups you're thinking of. For one thing, they have a delectable layer of strawberry jam inside. They're also made with reishi mushroom. (Yes, really). Turns out, Reishi powder and cacao are perfect partners and really boost the bar's nutrition — though, don't worry: Decadent chocolate and PB&J are all you'll taste.

Red Velvet Chocolate Cake
Drooling yet? This delectable chocolate cake gives new meaning to "red velvet," thanks to the star ingredient: red beets. They provide the color and an interesting earthy flavor that actually works really well with the dark chocolate. Finish with a high-shine glaze and edible flowers for extra-romantic, Insta-approved vibes.
