Valentine\u2019s Day<\/a> is just around the corner and we all know it\u2019s all about the chocolate! It’s also about sharing that chocolate with someone you love. This recipe is perfect for V-Day<\/a>: It makes just two perfectly-portioned cherry and chocolate parfaits (try saying that a few times fast!). The ingredients are super simple too, but you can get a little fancy and add some cherry kirsch to the cherry sauce if you want. I definitely recommend it!<\/p>\n\"chocolate\n

Oh, and don\u2019t fret–I know cherries aren\u2019t in season<\/a> right now. But you can always buy dark sweet cherries in the frozen section or in the canned section of most grocery stores, and those work just perfectly! Not only are these desserts the perfect option for a date-night in<\/a> (or a movie night with your roommate!), they\u2019re so<\/em> simple to make.<\/p>\n

Cook the cherries with some sugar, water, corn starch, and of course that cherry kirsch, to make your luscious sauce. Layer crushed Oreos, your silky<\/a>, sweet spiked cherry sauce, and a pillowy dollop of whipped cream into small parfait-sized glasses, and you\u2019re done!<\/p>\n\"spoon\n

You’ll want to keep this cherry chocolate dessert in your back pocket for the whole year round, honestly! You can, of course, double the recipe if you\u2019d like four parfaits instead of two. Happy Valentine\u2019s Day!<\/p>\n
