Oh, the dreaded couples’ holiday is coming up. That means lots of cheesy cards, heart shaped everything, and men scrambling trying to find the perfect throw-away gift for his girl. I don’t mind the holiday, though. Actually, I don’t mind any of the holidays. Every holiday means specialized items in the baking aisle!
For that, I am a sucker. I will mindlessly fill my cart with every heart shaped, red, and pink chocolate there is. I know it all tastes the same, but seeing chocolate chips a tad different than the normal shapes and colors of what I’m used to brings joy to my baker heart.
Nestle can do no wrong in my book.
These s’mores cookies from Chelsea’s Messy Apron are wonderfully soft and chewy. They’re packed with flavor and remind me of camping. I love the touch of Nestle’s Valentine chips.
